According to the RPI site the sticking occurs because of the valve body
not the valve.
The JE valve would be very simple to get machined locally having seen the
pics.

Subject: RE: Special bypass valve JE Engineering
Is that the valve for the SD1 engine?
I have heard of sticking SD1 valves.
RPI engineering sells a new valvebody which is very expensive.
I have never heard of sticking valves in the P6 type engine.
Do you know a price for that valve.
Lex.

Hi Brian,
A sticking bypass valve is not a fun item.
J.E. Engineering makes a special round valve fitting that replaces the
standard valve without mods and can never stick.
