Hey all,
Some questions for you. I have a GenV BBC. Where do you find the oil bypass (maybe pressure relief) valves that go in the block at the factory oil filter mounting pad? What pressure do the valves open at? Also, I have two ports for an oil cooler. They are in front of the oil filter. Do those ports required any special valves in order to run the cooler?
Thanks
Nubbs

Nubbs, The only place I believe you can get the bypass valves are at a G.M. parts dealer. they are about $10 each for the factory ones. Her is a link for the bypass info from skogin-dicky Gen. V- IV bypass info (http://www.sdpc2000.com/faq/kbhowto.asp?mt_node=116)
