Gonna have to check tomorrow. I just got back from Oregon and I am not gonna have the plastic off until in the afternoon tomorrow.

That's cool, whenver you get a chance. I found another project or two to keep me busy this weekend. :thumbsup:

Where did you buy it from? I assume that it does in fact fit and function properly on the OEM Banshee radiator? It sounds like we need someone to try it with a set of Fullbores. Is it much heavier that the stock cap? Does the quality seem to be ok? :geek:

 

Stock cap weighs in at a meager 1.5 ouces and the thermocap tipped the scales at 2.4 ounces. Difference is less than a shot of tequila.

 

Here are a couple of pics of the thermocap with Fullbores. One pic was taken while seated, the other while leaning slightly forward.

Only complaints are that the gauge is not liquid filled and the face is rotated 90 degress off with the cap completely seated. Would be nice to clock the gauge somehow, but I haven't figured out how to do it without destroying the gauge. I will probably just leave it as is, put it on with the bottom of the gauge facing the right. Just a quick glance and if the needle is pointing anwhere to the right of straight up, I know I am in the dreaded zone of plenty.

...............that answered my question. I was afraid that the cap was going to foul the rear edge of the hole in the Fullbores. :geek:

Firehead, total height on the cap with the sensing bulb or just the outside area?

I was simply trying to figure out how much higher the cap was going to be than an OEM cap, but it looks like someone else answered my question. :thanks:
