And he wonders why his radiator blew out :-)

I believe the '70 models were higher, but most Roadster years use a
7 PSI cap.

The cap on the radiator (u20) or thermostat housing (R16) should be a
sealed, flat cap with no pressure relief (dealer item, more $ than you
expect!); the overflow tank gets the true 'radiator cap'.
