I run a stant one with the pressure relief valve. Just make sure it is deep enough to seat in the neck as most are a little short. I think mine is 13 lbs but i have run 15 lb caps in a pinch.

Whatever fits from the auto parts store. Look for one for MG Midget. 12-15 psi.

I'm getting close to waking the engine I've rebuilt from it's 35 year slumber. I seem to have neglected to order a rad cap with the piles of other stuff I've had to get.
Does anyone know or a brand/part number that fits a standard mini rad that can just be purchased at a local parts shop? I'm not keen on waiting for one from overseas.
It's a stock 998 located in Canada.
Thanks.
