he shimmed the front pressure relief and did something to a brand new rear pressure relief valve i bought him, he also ground on the oil pump passages in the front iron





I just measured my front oil pressure regulator's spring, it is 2mm short, do I need to shim it?

yeah, i posted some pics earlier of the portwork on the oil system



the new spring is like $3, and a new rear regulator is like $29



i don't see why more people don't replace these parts, springs get hot and weaken, it's a fact...

oh, did Rick port-matched the oil gallaries to the holes of the stationary gears. like notched?



more questions if you don't mind, what size is your main discharge just off the pump? and what size is your main bearing gallaries? as I am enlarging the discharging side of the oil gallary and looking for some guide lines,

thanks again for sharing!!
