any problems at all right now. I'm just looking at increasing the
factor of safety against overheating because I just added AC to it.

Your conflating over-pressure with over-heating. Containing the
pressure won't make it cooler.

Non-ac cars use a 7 pound cap and AC uses 13. But it's a 52 year old
car (well maintained) and the downside would be if adding 6 pounds
more pressure is likely to create any leaks, like in the 52 year old
heater core. Nothing leaks now. I'm just torn between being
proactive and getting a higher pressure cap "just in case", or just
sitting tight and seeing how the temperatures run as the weather heats
up.
