intercooled reservoir help in a 97

I am finally to the last stages of the build and looking to route the IC lines. I have a spare window washer bottle from a 99+ that goes in the fender/ bumper since the 97 has the washer bottle that sits on the battery area. would it be stupid to use the 99+ washer as a preliminary reservoir before the hot coolant gets to the pump and potentially drop a little temp there before the FMHE cools it even more? I know this is a stretch of the imagination but I think it is worth some consideration since the 97 also uses the coolant bottle location for the cooling system that I used on the 03 as the reservoir. Any other clever Ideas are welcome but worst comes to worse I may mod a 99+ coolant bottle and fit it in. I am open to suggestions or thoughts.
 


It would actually heat the fluid there as the alternator is right beside it. It likes to run in the low 200's.

Its also not possible to pressurize it.

I'd suggest the ss/sc pressure cap filler piece or a big one over by the intake.
