Default What PSI and type radiator cap / surge tank?
I have had no cooling problems ever with my single 16psi radiator cap; but I recently went with a Kirkrham FE style surge tank for my 351w and this calls for a radiator cap, so I am going purchase two new ones of similar make..

- What PSI should I use? I use a 80/20 mixture of radiator and water with water weter.
- Both should be the same PSI?

Clearance is very tight between the surge tank and the hood so I was going to go with a Stant 10371 style as seen here...
