That MAY not be what the correct part Chewy. Below is a link to an interesting thread. See posts 5, 10, 14, 20 and 21. Apparently these were dealer, not factory installed. So there's some doubt of consistency. I can't say for certain they all used the same part. At least one recovery tank was a GM part. I've seen one on a SPID. Dealer makes the SPID? Heck, I don't know.

Any chance your SPID shows an overflow tank?

I may still be interested. Can I trouble you for the widths of? 1. mounting strap width. In other words, the width of the vertical portion of the bracket. It's probably around 2-3". Also 2. the horizontal width of the entire bracket. I'd like to confirm this fits with the radiator and core before I ponder this further.
