[DeTomaso] COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURE CAP VALUES / Dick Ruzzin

[Dickruzzindesign at aol.com]

I am sure that there are many variations but what is the latest thinking on 
values for the pressure caps on Panteras?
What was stock?
I think I remember in 1969 that may car came with a seven pound cap.
I kept raising it to move the boiling point up as I struggled to cool the 
car.   Sixteen pounds works but now that it cools very well I think that lower 
pressure would facilitate coolant movement, front to rear and back.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks.




All the best,
