[QUOTE="RandomForumGuy, post: 16958341, member: 200308"] Thanks for the help Gents. I just got off the phone with RPG engines (unrelated), and they said that the bolt is a thermostat bypass and the spring behind the bolt is what regulates the flow supposedly. He says he has never seen a spring fail and he also states 90ish psi under high rpm isnt crazy for a high-performance build. The engine has break-in oil still which could be contributing to the heat and pressure issues so we are going to throw 5w-50 in it and see what changes. If nothing changes he recommended getting a remote oil cooler setup. In reality i should do it anyway but im running low on space and it seems to be hit and miss with quality of cooler kits currently offered. [/QUOTE]
