The stampings on the repro caps are not as deep as the original caps. My repro cap would not hold 7# of pressure; waste of money. Joe Perri sells restored original caps. Look in the Driveline. -

Bought the cap for my 58 from Joe Perri at Carlisle a couple years ago. Works much better then the repop and judged just fine.
