Any idea of NOS for those two? My temp gauge was on normal middle setting so it wasn't over-temping in fact it only took about ten minutes for it to be ok to refill prior to going home,

What is the pressure level you have just before it blows ? Might be worthwhile fitting a pressure gauge on it and go for a drive . The spring might be functioning correctly and doing what it is designed to do, release pressure above a certain psi.
