Smile 1996 xk8 transmission oil pressure & engine coolant presures?

Hello folks
So after the nighmare of draining my transmission and engine coolants and thoroughly flushing both because of a cracked platic radiator, I am now the proud owner of an all aluminum radiator which I bought from Austrailia. I never want to experience that again so this time I am looking to run a pressure test on this new radiator to make sure there are no cracks. Sooo...as the title of this thread states, I need to know what the presures are for the radiator's coolants. Any help is much apreciated and thanks in advance.
Regards
S.Degenkolb

I believe the coolant cap opens at 1 bar, transmission fluid is not under pressure.
