A 1971 cap? I'm not looking for NOS, but I'd at least like to get one that looks similar to original for my 340 Cuda.
Thanks in advance!

I thought the " ears " should stick out more on the pre 72 caps??

I'm not sure other than they are off of challenger radiators and I have had several 71s. Is that a part number?

This is the popular image I'm seeing on the internet... along with other types-

Photo is from Dale's Cuda Shop... what do you think?
