Over the next coupla days after car sits overnite, pull the bung and top off coolant, trapped air will rise and you will find you will keep having to adding. If you topped off reervoir, do NOT open it again. Eventually you won 't add anything. I have that same tank (painted of course lol), I had to wrap neck threads with teflon tape and screw cap on, I was getting air in the system thru that, a temp gauge for me was mandatory (Aeroforce), I knew I had air in system when out of the blue a normal running temp of 180 would hit 215. Great build and congrats
