Cost. We priced out having them fabricated years back, way too expensive to be practical.

I did a write-up on this with photos some time ago.
The leaks are the least of the problems with these badly made tanks.
Some have ports/nipples that are blind.Yup - they do not have a hole that leads back to the coolant tank. You can imagine the problems....
Buy only from a source with a no dicker return policy - Pelican for example. No EBay !

Thanks guys... The mechanic cancel my appointment today, This morning I followed a link a member have sent to me about pull the valve up and run the car for few days maybe there is air in the system! I pup up with distilled water! It seems almost good, after driving it I saw a small water from the tank but not a lot than before, maybe need a bit air purge again.
Happy to follow you guys..

I have a question... After driving with valve up to purge the air do I have to put the Valve off when I park? Or do I have to leave it like that until no coolant leaking? Because every driving I put down the D. Thanks
