Maybe, as a last resource... But I want to keep the canisters looking the same. I already have 3 of the same, the MazSport is just like the 3 I have.

EDIT: Tried the above reservior....WHAT A NIGHTMARE! Car overheated on me over 10 times! Having to stop and wait for it to cool down, couldn't boost or it would spit all the water out, nasty, nasty, nasty!!!

Next post has what I did now tempoarily until I fab my own Cansiter, will post pic of end result.

Here is a pic of canister sold at Murray Speed & Custom Shop. (Went up from $60 to $75 though..)





















Finished product. I am going to relocate the coolant one, the hoses at bottom hit the wheel well, the windshield washer reservoir can go at the very end, or even better, oil catch can, doesn't do much anyways, LOL!!

I had someone weld me an aluminum pressure coolant cap neck.

EDIT: I didn't find it in murray's speed & custom's website but you can check the fabricator's website, here is their direct link to the product.

Here is the information on the package (don't tell nobody, I had to dig in the trash can to get it! LOL)

RPC (www.racingpowercompany.com)
R6570 (Radiator Fluid Reservor Tank)
85982865700 (barcode numbers just in case)

you think this can work as an oil tank for SOHn adaptor or it will be to small. I will put those two canisters one for oil and one for washer.

They looks great anyway and Thanks for posting the link

My first 3 canisters were 1-Oil Catch, 2-Windshield Washer and 3-Two Stroke Oil for my SOHN Adapter. It works perfect for it. You just have to switch the bottom bolt with the side barb. You will need to buy a new barb (bought mine at Ace hardware) with the same thread as the bottom, the side bolt you can put with teflon tape like I did. My 4th one was the Coolant reservoir which I had to modify and have someone weld the coolant cap neck...

The FIP thread/barb that comes on the side is a bit smaller and different thread. I had to use 2 adapters to convert the thread from a MIP weird compression/hydraulic type to the same MIP thread, compatible with the MIP thread to Barb adapter. They didn't have the FIP to barb adapter. If you find it then it's about $2~$3 cheaper. Both pictures below:

Got it! Thanks
If something I will get back to you about it.
I will have to buy rethread set if I cant find the right adapters but anyway I will need it for the washer canister. What size thread is the pump going underneath ??

Ok, you're confusing me. The windshield washer doesn't need any re-thread, just the rubber seal and pump from old one. You drill 1 1/4" hole and just stick the rubber seal, then stick the pump using grease, which snaps in place nice & tight. For the coolant reservoir is where you need to rethread (what I did) but it's easier to get a T and do it like MazSport did it since they no longer in business I don't think they will sue you for doing it...hehe
