I can’t envision what 12 measly degrees will mean to your driving experience. Can’t you simply slow down on that hill and accomplish the same thing?

Being no expert too.......read my 1st post and why I opted for the "pressurized" system. I really wasn't looking for the higher boiling point in my case. I might end up with a zero lb cap in the end, but I won't have hot radiator fluid in my face ever again if the car overheats for ANY reason. BTW, the price was the same for a stock rad and the pressurized rad.
