Question surge tank cap

I'm having serious problems with my 96 grand am (V6 3.1L). I'm pretty sure I've got a cracked head or something like that because there are air bubbles in the radiator surge tank. That and overheating are the only symptoms so in hopes that it is a minor crack I put sodium silicate in to try and seal it. When I drove it afterwards it didn't heat up but still spewed out from the cap. When I bought the car (used) she didn't have a surge tank cap-a friend put one on so I'm not sure if it's the correct psi. My question is what psi is required for my car, if anyone knows...
