Default Need help, Radiator caps for BB

I just purchased a 1970 454ci, auto, AC with copper radiator and a brass over flow tank. I am trying to find out what are the original caps that came with this configuration. Also what the cap pressure value should be as well. Been checking with many of the Vette suppliers and they just don't seen to come up with a definitive answer. I know the answer is out there.
