Default shroud and overflow tank?

If it's not one thing it's another. . . Shroud is destroyed, so I had to take it off (it'll be at least a couple of weeks before I can replace it). I'm not too worried about running without it since I don't have to drive the car that far and it's not a built motor. My question is are there going to be any problems (computer maybe?) driving without the overflow tank in the mean time? If I have to, I can rig it up somehow, but I'd just as soon go without it if I can.

Thanks again- peace.

Computer related problems due to the overflow? ........Nope.
I would suggest checking the coolant level more frequent or rig a temporary overflow tank. GL

I didn't figure there would be, but then again, I know how my luck goes. Thanks for the confirmation.
