Hey Everyone,  I was wondering if anyone had an original 427 expansion tank they wanted to sell?
Thanks
Chad

It may be prudent to remind potential sellers that the 427 Cobra expansion tank your looking for is different then the typical FE expansion tank.

Thanks Bob.  That is true the tanks for the 427 Cobras are a modified FE tank.  I would take the correct tank that I could modify if someone has one.  The part number is: C5ME 8A080 A

99% out there will be used with no way to identify other then with visual confirmation. Best to post a picture of the unmodified donor tank if you can because there are different fe tanks . Not all FE expansion tanks are correct as a basis to modify to a typical historical 427 Cobra style expansion tank.
