Re: Burtz oil pump
Dennis Kliesen obtained a patent for adding the pressure relief valve to his filter housing. The other housing, manufactured by someone else, does not have one. I have the Kliesen filter housing on my Burtz block and it works great. My Stipe pump puts out 50 psi but the regulator on the housing keeps the pressure right at 25 psi from idle up to 3,000 rpm. He does not have a web site but email him at [email protected].
Being able to set the pressure external to the engine is a real advantage. Before having the Kliesen filter housing, I dropped the pan a few times to set the relief valve on the oil pump. Plus, the relief valve on my oil pump did not control the pressure nearly as well as the one on the Kliesen filter housing.
