zim Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 As per title ? I've found them on ebay - but call me a tight arse - £27 is taking the wee wee i think ! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ROVER-V8-ENGINE-OIL-PRESURE-RELIEF-VALVE-UPGRADE-KIT_W0QQitemZ300353760241QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item45ee7aabf1 I've tried real steel, v8 tuner, rpi.... Waiting a return call from JE Developements. I suppose i could one machined if it came to it, but off the shelf is easier.

missingsid Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Not heard of this before, how new an idea is it? Does it cure the sticking risk of the standard plunger? Cheers, Marc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zim Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 I've got a mocal take off plate which replaces the oil pump cover. However due to how the pressure relief valve spring plug screws into it (the housing is shorter so to speak), the spring is under more pressure than a standard pump, coupled with the fact that the tadpole makes the prv slightly longer as well i've decided to make an adjustable relief valve.
