well this came about because the 15/40 w oil gave me another static 300 rpm 
thats got to eqate to maybe 8-10 hp more ---significant 
but the pressure drop off when hot at cruise down to 25 psi   a little low 

where is the  pressure reg --i believe there are 2 devices --this has an oil 
cooler fitted as well

Subject: Re: KR> oil presure regulator

A quick and easy way to increase the presure is to pull the sping out and 
pull it to strech it out a little bit.  Just put it back in and that should 
dothe trick.

i have a vw 1835 --and need to boost oil pressure a bit --i notice there is 
a oil pressure regulator in the case
how does this work ----
ie does it blow off at 80-90 psi and allow oil to go to the sump
i was thinking of using  15w -40w oil  which would be a bit thinner than 
20-50
but do not want to lose oil pressure
