The strainer has a 3/4" adjustable pressure relief that dumps out the back to. I have it set about 15 psi.

Thanks Eddie , Teague sent 4 pressure relief valves gonna set them at 15 lbs on the bench and put them in , or do you set the strainer at 25lbs and the cooler at 15lbs ?

On my Cat can I come off the same the same pickup or sea strainer that supplies the engine? (T-off line or come off the sea strainer) Or do I need a separate pickup? On my old setup on my Baja I went through the intercooler, to oil cooler then engine. You can see the custom intercooler in my avatar. On my Cat I have #5's with a 2 stage pump from transom pickup.

I'm assuming after the sea strainer but before the pump? I am running a 2 stage pump also (each stage going to the bell housing cooler then the motor.

We pulled it after the pump, out of the belhousing :
maybe Eddie will chime in he sounds like quite the engine guru

I talked to Eddie on the phone and he said separate pickup.... If I draw before the pump I risk starving the pump at idle drawing water back out of the the intercooler then sucking air in.
