I replaced mine with an 8 psi cap. Honestly, I am not sure if it the right one. 
But, two seasons later my Perkins  (M20) is still working fine. My high temp is 
more like 185 - 190 F.

If you find info on what the opening pressure should be, I would like to know.

The radiator cap on my Perkins diesel engine (Perkins Perma M30, installed by 
the PO around 1982) is badly rusted.  It’s easy to find a replacement that fits 
physically, but what opening pressure rating should it have? At 2000-3000 rpm, 
the temperature gauge reads about 175 F degrees.
