>> I'm using a Parker pressure relief valve on my CJ, which I obtained from Kevin Kimball. Check with them for prices if you are interested at some point. My motives in exploring this were: A. Cleaner engine compartment and; B. Longterm supportability of this particularly critical item. (I think that supplies of NOS parts will eventually dry up.); C. Thought it would be an easy installation---and it was.
>>
>> The unit was factory preset and certified to pop off at 750psi---but is easily adjustable. It also has an outlet port which I connected to an unused smoke fitting on the left exhaust stack. It is mounted on the firewall exactly where the original valve was; uses the stock CJ tubing and fittings; with the pressure inlet and check valves mounted on an AN cross. As the brass valve is heavier than the original, I drilled three holes in the firewall and added plate nuts for adel clamps to hold the valve. That was it for mods.
>>
>> This unit has proven to be reliable; stable in pressure maintenance; and much cleaner in operation due to venting the bypass crud to the exhaust...rather than dumping it on the firewall.
>>
>> I am out of the county and out of memory re: the Parker part #--- but will be back in country late next week. I will be glad to post photos of my installation on the list should anyone be interested.

The Western made one I mentioned earlier was also from Kevin Kimball I
believe.
