If you've been running 7 psi with no problems, I would stick with it (unless
of course you find that elusive NOS cap). 4psi is, of course, stock; but 7
gives a bit better cooling and a bit more margin before boilover.

Stant, right ? Betcha nickel it's the wrong cap ... their applications

You might ask TRF, I believe they sell a reproduction cap that's pretty
close.
