My new setup for spring.

So I have been having some problems with to much pressure in my cooling system, last night I blew a coolant hose that goes from the intake manifold to the head. I then noticed today that my radiator cap is a 30psi cap. Im going to be changing that out and hopfully I will stop bursting hoses. I know some of you guys will point fingers at maybe me having a blown headgasket but I dont think thats the case since I pressurized the cooling system today to 30psi and there was no leaks anywhere and also I used that chemical tester and it all turned out good there as well. I also did a complete leakdown test too. I should be picking up some cool new toys soon for the car, AEM wideband, new radiator, new ignition system, and install my dual walbro full blown assembly.
