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?

TIA,
Kevin

Tom Perso did this to his 2270 that was originally installed in his bug. That motor is now in his 914. Hopefully he'll post on this thread.
