Hi Listers:  Most extremely high oil pressure problems that I have seen are 
due to problems with the oil pressure relief valve. The "bullet" or whatever 
you call it can be incorrectly sized. That is, the skirt can be too long 
which does not allow the oil to get behind it to get into the bypass 
passage. Therefore, you will always have way too much oil pressure. This is 
just one more case of replacment parts for our Healeys being "made in 
???????".  The message here is : before replacing your old relief valve, 
compare the new one with the old. Hope this helps with your problem.
