Looking for some information on cooling system swirlpots.

I purchased one off ebay last year, a greddy knock off I believe.

Its great, but pictures of real swirlpots show that the outlet on the botton going to the lower radiator hose, is the size of a radiator hose itself, not a vaccuum line.

Id like to modify mine, but cant find enough information to make solid conclusions.

any pointers would be great.

Thats not a swirl pot btw. its just an expansion tank. swirl pot actually goes on the upper radiator hose. and is a little better at clearing air from the system.

but yeah, you probably got the AC auto thing that mercer got. search, if you rig it right it might help a bit.
