We took a thermometer reading in the cap at 190 and the gauge was reading about 200. This was before tearing the engine down. The cap that came with the radiator does not have a pressure indication on it. I will email the manufacturer and see if I can find out what it is. As I understand it a higher pressure cap would actually raise the operating temperature.
