radiator cap pressure
Permalink  

does anyone know what the rad cap pressure should be for the 1954 239 straight six flathead? its either no pressure, 4lbs, or 7lbs. i had too high of a pressure cap on the radiator and it blew the seals in my water pump so while i'm waiting for a new pump i thought i'd get that figured out. thanks
