I just added pressure relief valves to my set up. I went with the Hardin valves that are incorporated into the thru-hull fitting, they are preset at 10 lbs. Mine is in an NA application and are mounted between the oil cooler and the engine. I've yet to run them, so no clue what the actual pressure is.
