I too have this one and it works as described by qkcuda. I use a stock PSI cap too and the type of cap matters, I think it has two springs instead of one. Its been a while since I did my homework on the topic.

The one that exploded on me had two tubes. One of the tubes was open at the bottom, but extended almost to the top of the tank. The other was shorter and was connected to the radiator overflow hose. The problem with the tubes is that they’re smaller inside diameter than the radiator outlet.
like I said, I have a feeling I may not have had it set up correctly, which is why I started this thread in the first place.

I have 2 running cars, stock 318 and the other one is a 418 stroker, neither car needs an overflow tank. The radiator seeks its own level and stays there, just above the tubes, they don't over heat either. My Hemi car, do not expect it to be an issue either.

I went with a Dorman 54002 kit from the local O'Reilly's. My radiator's overflow hose connects to the bottom feed on the Dorman bottle/tank. It works well for my needs.

I have at least a very similar one to qkcuda. This one has enough capacity. I had a smaller one and it was just barely enough so the volume would go down over time. This one works perfectly. Mine might be a taller one. I have it on the back of the radiiator due to the height.
