You sure about that Pete?

From The Revised 2011 JS&RG

In the general description - "Valve Cap - All valve caps were unpolished nickel plated and had a core remover tip."

In the ACME description - "Valve cap - The core remover valve cap was 5/8" tall with a 23/64" diameter base. the upper portion had a slightly larger diameter with an x knurling pattern."

Listed on the component chart, All ACME stems used the 301 ACME cap, which is a core tip cap.

If there is something I'm missing, could you point me in that direction.
