Rb26 Oil Restrictor

[den001]

hi,

ive got a full built 26 in my gtr, i got the engine form my mate who told me its got a stock oil pump on it, ive changed it over to jun pump, now im worried that it mite not have a restrictor in the block for oil feed, is this such a big issue as obviously the pump flows more and has more pressure, will i have dramas with it overfilling the head???

rev limit will be 8500 max 9000rpm

should i pull the head off and check?? id rather not

any recommendations from experienced people please??

cheers

Start buy asking the guy you bought it from - depends on how much of a mate he is...

If you don't belive him then pulling the head off is 1 way to check.

As for the car still working without the restrictors, yes it will, but depends on how much track stuff you'd be doing - if its just the occasional spirited drive the car should cope fine, it simply comes down to how much time you spend in the higher revs as thats when the oil battles to get back to the bottom end...

my 2 cents, im sure there will be several opinions...

he is a very good mate and he is sure that it doesnt have one fitted.
