What are the chances of blowing a headgasket with a 1.3 bar radiator cap? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

After my adventures with the cap here:http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.p...threadid=34081,

I want to know if the head gasket is at a high risk for blowing when using the 1.3 bar cap. My car has 194k on it, but runs quite strong. I know that the hoses would be at risk for blowing now (since the water pump will be sealed well), but I'm very worried about the headgasket. So, what are the chances of the head gasket actually going kaput?
