Also, given the mounting location and configuration, there is no way that reservoir is going to “superheat” the coolant. Perhaps if you welded fins onto it and mounted it in contact with the headers lol… but installed like the OEM one, I’ll respectfully disagree. That reservoir is not going to have any impact on coolant temps at all.

Interesting, you would think with the metal type of materials being above the headers if you're already melting the plastic tank there would be enough heat to heat up the coolant in the metal tank. I may be completely off here though so who knows. I'll wait to see maybe SoCal can post up some real world experience with the new tank vs the old.
