You need a 15lb cap.A coolant recovery style is better as it allows the water/steam to go to a reservoir and then return when it cools down.

I can verify recovery system is an improvement. Without, as temp goes up you loose fluid. As temp reduces, it sucks air in, which doesnt perform well in cooling systems.

With recovery system, as it cools down, it draws in morecoolant, which is usuall
