I have a 57 & 58 Belvedere both w/a 318.
The other day my top hose from the radiator to the engine sucked in once I
arrived at a show. A friend at the show told me he suspect my Radiator cap
maybe bad and not venting. Once the car cools, and I release the cap, the
hose goes back to it's normal shape. It again did this on the way
home. I did notice the rubber at the bottom of the spring was expanded and
made it tough to take off the radiator. I believe this is the problem, but
I am having a hard time finding the NOS style cap without the lever. The
cap I am running is a "#14, BC13" 14 lbs? Does this sound correct
for a '58 w/a 318. If so where can I get the proper cap? can't
recall where I got the 2 I am using.
Thanks,
