NY What the F! Man call me stupid????

I just bought one of those $200 radiators for my 91 Vert conversion...I was all excited until I opened the box to check it out...it has no filler neck just an input and output how the hell am I supposed to fill the system???...now I have to fabricate something any suggestions??? just like anything else it will probably spend the 150 I saved to finish...yeah i should have just got the 300 dollar one...I would say another lesson learned....but I'll most likely do the same thing next week on something else!!!!!

Get an S4 filler neck/thermostat housing. It has a cap on top of it.
