I can’t tell from the photo, but if the radiator has a clamped rubber cap under the expansion tank hose (under the radiator cap), ditch it and look for a silicone cap replacement rated for higher temperatures. An alternative is a piece of heater hose with a bolt and clamp stuck in the end.

The ones that they provide with aftermarket radiators tend to crack after a few months.
Been meaning to reply to this, obviously I misunderstood what you had meant. But, yes, I did replace that cap with a good and “expensive” cap. Thanks!

Gotta say the Black Bear Performance Tune, Corvette servo and complete transmission fluid transfer has really made it shift nicely!
