Will this tank fit the factory hoses and connections without adapters?

Yes. Mounting and coolant line ports match OEM dimensions and locations. Your existing hoses connect directly without modification.

Do I need to drain my cooling system before swapping this in?

Yes. Drain your coolant, disconnect your old tank, and transfer any sensor or mounting hardware that applies to your specific year before installing the aluminum tank.

Can I use this on a modified engine with higher coolant flow or pressure?

Aluminum handles heat better than stock plastic, but confirm your cooling system pressure rating matches the tank's design specs—contact us with your setup details if you're running a supercharger or turbo.
