I'll be getting my case back from RIMCO pretty soon and I'm thinking about the oil system. I'm planning to run a 30mm Schradeck (sp?) pump. I've read a number of threads about "full flow" oiling for TIV engines and I guess I don't get it.
For full flow on a TIV you do what? Plug or modify the oil filter bypass valve that I've circled below? Then what? Modify the oil pressure relief valve (new spring I guess) to accomodate higher pressure? Then what? At what pressure does the stock cooler blow open like a pan of Pop-Magic pop corn?

QUOTE(SLITS @ Mar 21 2004, 06:56 AM) I always thought that full flow meant that all the oil went through the filter without a bypass under cold or high pressure situations. Full flow just means that it can not bypass the filter. You MUST retain the pressure relief valve (the one in the case) or you will blow out the cooler (or bypass the cooler depending how you block it). |
