70Nova, are you 100% sure that will be ok? I pulled the valve out because it wouldn't close correctly and I called my machinist about it. He said that he had gone to Hastings Mfg for training back in the day, and they had a lab setup where they did all of their filter testing and what not. They specifically said that only a percentage of the oil goes through the filter on a single pass, and that the rest goes directly through that valve into the oil galleries.
Does anyone know if the big block chevy valve will fit in the 250?
