John, thanks very much for the encouraging comments. I don't take anything as a dig. If somebody points out a potential problem I want to hear about it. Now, on that expansion tank - here's the rest of the story. If you look right under the 'radiator' cap you'll see a plugged hole. That is one of two available holes for a hose fitting that will go to an overflow tank mounted nearby. So the plan is, once I do the initial fill & bleed, that I'll only need to add coolant on occasion to the overflow tank. So hopefully I won't have much of a mess going on right on top of the engine.
But you just pointed out something - if I was to do it again I'd go with the RH filler. Easier and cheaper.
