    Bakerman, I had the same problem. I used a piece of stainless tubing 5/8" id and 3/4 od and put a bend in it to match the drop that I needed. I drilled a hole in each end to connect to the steering rod and the place diverter. I still have the unit that Place sent with it. I didn't like it either.

    Has anyone else mounted a water pressure bypass right to the pump like I did in the pic? It worked great and didn't require any additional plumbing.

    What does the pressure bypass do? It reminds me of a prv on the top of a water heater.

    Iggdog, It bypasses the water pressure so that the engine never sees more than 12 lbs. or what ever you adjust it to.
    Helps the engine to heat up more and keeps head gaskets from leaking. The valve is typically closed at idle and opens/bypasses as the engine speed increases and the water pressure increases. Doesn't restrict the flow at all, just bypasses the excess pressure.

    TaylorLP20, I bought the valve from John Cost of ARS Marine. He's the guy who writes the jet tech column in Drag Boat Review. He just moved to Lake Havasu so I don't have a recent phone no. You probably could reach him by faxing a message to Drag Boat review at 918-689-3422 or call information. The valve looks like some kind of off the shelf industrial unit but I don't know where it came from. It was only about $ 65
