APT is a name I'm unfamiliar with - I'll keep an eye out for 'em. I
noticed that my TRF catalog had bronze guides available, along with
valve seats they recommended for use with no-lead fuel. Comments?

I saw a relief valve and spring in the TRF catalog, but I saw no
mention of any pressure rating. One could certainly increase the
setting by stretching the spring, but that seems to me to be somewhat
arbitrary. Is this the same valve you're talking about? (I don't want
to be a pain about this. I just panicked when I saw the high oil
pressure and wondered what I was getting myself into. <g>)
