Radiator cap for a new radiator
OK, I was lucky to locate a brand new radiator in Mtl from Spectra Premium Industries. www.spectrapremium.com I currently does not have an OE radiator on my car, and I want to know what rad cap I can use, since the old one does not fit...

Compression of an E88 head
Thanks for all the input. Problem is, I'm not a mechanic and my mechanic lives 45 miles from my place... I'll ask him if they are flat pistons, and if he can take some pictures... Other problem, he's retired and works on the car during the day, alas, I work also in daytime Mtl downtown, a drag, since I cannot be there to watch him and ask questions! I have also very worn carbs right now, the one in the front is too rich, (blackened sparks) , and guess what, the carb in the back, too lean, white sparks.. As soon as I can have drive with the car and maybe some pictures, I'll keep on posting. As for the fuel, I'm using Petro Canada 94 octane gas, available only in the Mtl area, not available outside Mtl, so I keep some octabe booster cans in the car.

Compression of an E88 head
Problem is, the compression is causing knocking from time to time. I'm doing my headgasket right now. I have installed right now a new set of rebuilt SUs, put a 280ZX Turbo head gasket as well as a metal spacer to have 0.040'' of additional clearance to lower the comp. ratio. I have changed points for a electronic distributor as well as the coil. I will see in 2 weeks, when the job is done, if the car runs better. Oh yeah, and a brand new radiator as well.
