Let me add an update on a price change and misunderstanding here from what he even quoted me Versus what is on my bill for one of these things..
O/F Valve=$35
Gaskets=$2
Shipping=$7.50 =Total=$44.50
DO NOT try taking the 15mm top screw out to mess with the spring, it is darn near impossible to press it back in the o/f valve once it is in..you need to notch the head back 1/4 inch to get it in there as well..it is a project to say the least

Yep. $35 a piece, and $1 a piece on the washers, plus about $7.00 shipping. Mine should be in tomorrow i hope. I sent out a check last Friday, but he may be waiting on it to clear or something. Cant wait to get it in.

I just installed a new OFL from Marty and I could not install it without taking off the 10MM bolt. It was hitting on the intake manifold. So I take it off and reinstall it. Do I screw any factory setting or anything like that when I did this? Thanks

No big deal removing the top as long as no parts flew. Better than what some people do and bend the steel line, then it becomes very difficult to line it back up again. The best way to do it on a truck where it won't fit is to grind or file a little bit of material off the place on the intake where it hits.

It is a pressure check valve. It has a spring, ball and spacer. The spring should measure .5 inches and can be resized in a pinch but springs lose tension when stretched so better to use a new one.

If any of you sent him a check for your overflow valve; how long did it take to get there? I sent the check out over a week ago, and its still not here. I know he hasnt cheated me; im guessing its just the mail is slow, but im anxious to get this in!

It's always been about a week for me paying over the phone with a CC. I imagine he runs out quite often since his price is the best one around by far.

The reason for no PO box shipping is that it's shipped UPS, must be a feud or something, the US post office won't let UPS ship to them.

Got mine, and got it in today. Seems to have helped a decent little bit. Im happy with it, even if it did take a few days to get here, because thats the best price ive heard of. Im not complaining.
