Default Rad Cap Thread question 28-29

Model T guy here, please don't hold it against me. I've been looking into having a cap machined(spl purpose) for my acc radiator for my TT truck. I have a cap that fits but am trying to find out what the thread is. Lots of weird here. A T gas cap will thread into the cap about a half a revolution, both are 16tpi but am told that the A rad is the same thread as the T gas tank. If someone here makes new caps what is the thread? Cant find it in any online charts. Thanks Jerry

Jerry,

I have a couple of "T" dog bone radiator caps that I can not use as I have A's. If interested send me a message.

Ron
