[Tigers] Tiger radiator caps

The last cap I bought was in Rapid City, after my Tiger hurled the contents of
its cooling system all over the top of Mt. Rushmore.
Seems to me they (NAPA, IIRC) had caps on a card rack and I just picked one
that had the pressure rating I was looking for. If you're running a coolant
recovery system you will want to be sure that the cap will function correctly
in such an application (i.e. there needs to be a center reverse valve in the
cap).

If you're running a heater core (or if you have the cap plumbed into the cold
side of the rad) then be careful about getting too high a pressure rating,
because the heater core tank sides are not that strong.

By default I think something like a '65 Mustang application will work fine.
