rad caps

Okay I have about 30 some odd different rad caps in a basket all rated for different pressures. Now the dumb question.. which cap is used for our trucks. I have a '77 F-150 400 cu.in with a C6. I just ordered a new aluminum 4 core rad for it to. Pops

According to the Ford parts catalog its 13 PSI (D7ZZ-8100-A, Motorcraft RS-50).
If it was me, with a new radiator, I'd spend the few bucks and get a new cap.
