Tom and Steve,
Thanks for the good advice. I took my tank to an old school rad shop this morning. Sadly I may have been his only project. He jumped right on it and had me fixed up in 30 minutes while I watched. I was trying to flatter the guy by telling him he has a dying craft and that I was recomended to find a shop with old guys. He gave me a look and said thanks a lot. There is something to be said for thick skin. He charged me $20 bucks and I was on my way.

What cap pressure should I be using on my 1972 390fe ? I have been using a 14# cap and 195 thermostat. Too high or just right.

John
