Moss is now making a repro of this overflow tank so you may get this one for a very good price indeed. The tank is brass underneath the black paint.

I have this setup. see:

MG tank has 7 lb cap - any cap will do, but it must be kept loose; tank is kept half full with radiator overflow hose attached; radiator clear full; 7 lb cap on rad. Radiator cap requires additional gasket, see this and succeeding pictures:

Healey 7lb cap has small relief valve in center of large overflow valve.

Using this setup, radiator will remain clear full at all times.
