Default New aluminum reservoir tank for my paxton installed

Just cleaned the bay a bit and installed the procharger radiator reservoir and i must say its a great fit with minor mod. Cost of the tank was $110 shipped. I replaced my plastic paxton tank that was leaking to no end with this one. (Yes i tried to fix the problem even called paxton for a replacement but as of now they do not offer an aluminum tank)

The leaking starts when the pressure went up in the tank like hard driving and pushing it at 80plus

Hey I have an "off topic" question for you. Is that an oil serparator you have? Can you fill me in on that. I have heard about them.
