The late relief valve that is available from S.S is that from an 68+
Arrow or Rapier.
It does fit some of the later SV alpine oil filter blocks.

The "Arrow" part is the exact part that I recommend for the adjustable
relief valve
and at around $30 for both valve and filter base, how could you go
wrong.

The newer relief valve, will still only give you around 50 PSI though,
Although it is far less likely to stick open.
