FWIW, I had a cap that passed the suck/blow test but when I parked nose
up on a steep hill and filled the system from the front (small hose into
the bottom of a plastic jug) there was still a trickle that went to the
overflow tank.  After the system was bled and I backed off the hill, the
cooling system performed normally.

As to the radiator "Bolt" ... you can cut a slot in the lower threads
using a Dremel or some such.  That way it'll work like the OEM brass
bolt with the slot.
