A good-condition cap a couple of pounds higher rating might help IF you've got a tubular radiator that will handle the extra pressure. Don't overstress a honeycomb radiator with a too-high pressure cap.
A recovery system will allow it to recycle the coolant, if you don't mind going non-stock. Jerry
