It might. I have wheel center caps made like this. You can measure your center caps and the decals would be a tad smaller

Did anyone else who has ordered a cover, have theirs with a slit/cut down along the backside from the back inlet cutout to the bottom? I ordered one and received it like mentioned above. When I contacted the distributor, I was told it was supposed to be that way and it wouldn't go on without the slit. Doesn't make any sense to me and I've never heard of anyone talking about it before.

I honestly thought I received a defective one and asked for it to be replaced. Am I wrong or should I still like I got a BS story from the vendor? Thoughts?

I thought the same but it's made to fit snugly on the tank. You couldn't get it over the port without the slit. All good.

Thanks, DDub68!!! I thought I was losing my mind because it came packaged so well and to open it and find that slit was driving me crazy. Thought maybe I had a defective one or something.

Now I can tackle putting that sucker on and making the engine bay P-U-R-T_Y :clap2:

Pretend the slit was not there and try to get it on :lol:

I doubt it will go on easily

would like to see that one on a car.
I just ordered one and will post pics as soon as it's installed. Won't be 'til early June, though. I'm out of the country at the moment.

Granatelli Motor Sports tank installed.

does it move when you pull up on the back?

I have one but not sure about the cap fit and how it is not secure in rear ie: no tap as stock

I did not paint it....came in the matte black finish.

Cap fits perfectly on the tank. The tank has a tab on the bottom similar to the stock plastic unit. I believe it is as secure as the stock configuration.

Went with the moroso, it was the lowest cost aluminum tank I found. I plan on painting it myself when it comes in.

So I ordered a Mishimoto coolant expansion tank not knowing if it would even fit with my Ford Performance oil separators. Good news! It fits...just barely. It is a really tight fit and it'll make emptying the oil separator a bigger pain in the ass than it already is but it's worth it to get that damn jelly bean out of my engine bay.
