Shimming the front regulator
#1
I replaced the pressure regulator with a higher oil FC regulator in and modified the front by shimming it.
I was browsing around and found that the shims needs to be:
" These are shims used under the piston in the front cover oil pressure regulator when using a higher-than-stock pressure main oil pressure regulator in the rear plate."
This is from the website.
I put the shims on top of the spring then the cap. To me is the same thing, does it make a difference??

Racing Beat says 1/8" when using the comp 105-115 psi regulator. That works out to about 3mm.
If you're using a regulator out of an FC there would be no need to shim the front spring. If you're using an FD regulator just use the FD spring.
