[6pack] Oil Pressure Regulator

[Yahoo]

I used one of the HD springs for a little while.    Sorta cool seeing up to
100 lbs at start-up, but no difference when fuly hot.   One of the rebuilders
said he never uses them, not even on tr6 race engines.    I went back to a
stock spring known to be good.
 
Know this doesn't solve your oil pressure
issue,   -  all the best.
