Header Tank relocation

[pure~escort~mk1]

Hi, i've bought myself an alloy header tank. and i need to relocate it to the inner wing.

my questions is:

Does the header tank have to be fully above the top of the radatior line?

dont think so.Try it and see

As long as it's a non pressurised on it'll be ok, IIRC the S14 headertank is lower than the radiator.

[pure~escort~mk1]

is the S13 system pressurised?

[New200guy]

the header tank is not pressurised.

No reason it can't be lower down than the top of the rad but I wouldn't push it too far. Suction is good stuff but gravity, leaks and airlocks are generally the winners when pushed too far....

Remember that the pipe has to be drawing from the bottom of the header tank, whether from a pipe underneath or from above going down to nearly the bottom.
