Should i change my rad cap for more psi you think. It makes a lot of sense, didn't think about what a rad is there for. It's funny because my temp gauge is in celcius and they are Autometers and the temperature indicates 190 stable when engine is running in hot summer days. Should it be 190 farenheit. All the gauges I've got are "Autometer" . I didn't think that temp gauge would be in Celcius, though the kit was bought in Canada and it's made by a Canadian guy buy my speedo is in MPH, anybody saw those temp gauges in Celcius before.

I would put a 180 t-stat in it and call it good.
