Default ZR1 expansion tanks

Adds extra volume of water for your intercooler needs.....




This with a magnuson heat exchanger and intercooler brick mod with a properly filled system works great.

Running wetter water or engine ice wouldn't allow this system to run cooler? Does it put more strain on the pump, by moving additional coolant? How much does this cost and what's included, does it come w/ installation instructions?

Mine is also lacking its nose right now. I cheated. I called a buddy who has had the nose off his ZR1 three times and we removed it together.

Huge thanks to Drew (ZBADESTZ). He's been my "tech support hotline" as I figured out how to mount the Magnusson HX and run the lines etc. I really appreciate his care in helping fellow ZR1 modders.
