Be careful, I've heard that some people have had clearance issues with new caps.

thanks for the warning, I'm going to put a piece of clay bar on top of the cap And close the hood to see how much clearance I have.
I'm also wondering what the stock poundage is?

The cap should be marked on the top. If not a good shop can test it and let you know. Stant has most caps that can be bought at the auto parts store.

Why do you suspect the OEM one is bad?

nothing wrong with the original one I just would like to upgrade to a billet aluminum cap, I have a polished 342r and that's one of the only items that is not stainless or polished aluminum
