I put a mark on my rec tank that is very easy to see..

Winter it is a hair under the mark, but on warmer days it right on my mark..

It's a bit higher than stock fill. But not so much that it would ever overflow in summer etc..

Mine had the radiator hose rub through and leaking where it touched the manifold to brake booster vacuum hose. They replaced the radiator hose, and covered it with a corrugated plastic cover.
