Default Koyo Radiator cap?

I ordered a koyo half size radiator for my integra. It didnt come with a cap. Are these radiators suppose to come with one.

If not then what kind of cap do I need. I know the pressure rating on the stock cap is 0.8.

No it won't.

Ask a shop who sells Koyo radiators to sell you a cap.

OR

I just went to a local car shop and handed them the radiator and they found a cap for a chevy or somethin that fit.

You said you have the skunk 2 radiator cap. So your saying it fits the koyo half size civic aluminum radiator?. There is two types of this cap. One for the 94-01 integra. Then the other one is for a 88-00 civic. Since this is a 2core radiator, if I get the 88-00 civic cap will that one fit?.

I have an integra gsr but this is the civic rad.

Alright I found my answer. My stock radiator was a type d. The koyo radiator is a type F. So any type F cap will work. A type F is (88-91 civic), 90-93 integra,97-01 prelude.

So ill have to order a 88-91 civic radiator cap.

I went to advance auto parts with the radiator, tried all the caps. Found one made by Stant, the # is 11233 (16 psi, there's also a 13, I dont know the number), it fit the koyo perfectly, I think it was $6.99.
