I sold these 20 or so years ago for Tigers, and had no complaints. I belie=
ve the "Drake" caps are reproductions of this cap. They are now obsolete, b=
ut a few Ford dealers have some in stock, see link.
Ford #C9ZZ-8100-A or Motorcraft # RS-512A. Application was a dress cap for =
1969 Mustangs.

Just to add to my confusion I took a look at the Tiger Parts List Supplemen=

=C2=A0 B382001521 because it only shows the 1224725 header tank and Ron has=

is in TBON.=C2=A0 Is it possible that some of the earliest cars had 13 lb.=
caps and then they went to 9 lb. caps until they changes the header tanks?

The Rootes part number for the 9 lb. cap is 5220487 and when I Google that =

Hi,
=C2=A0
I'm hoping one of you guys can tell me what radiator cap I should be using.=
=C2=A0 I've tried a cap that was listed as being for a Tiger on Autozone's =
website but I think the pressure spring part under the cap is too short.=C2=
=A0 I almost immediately start getting water out of the overflow tube as th=
e engine warms up.=C2=A0 I measured the depth of the expansion tank opening=
from the top edge to the flange where the spring part of the cap would sit=
and got .777".=C2=A0 I measured the cap from the big rubber seal just unde=
r the cap to the small rubber seal at the end of the spring and got somethi=
ng like .75".=C2=A0 So it looks like I need a cap with a longer spring stem=
.=C2=A0=C2=A0
=C2=A0
A brand name and part number would be great=C2=A0 And also, what should the=
pressure rating be?=C2=A0 What I have is 13 lbs.
=C2=A0
