T-stat housing design. Not big enough internal bypass circut.
I had same problem, so broke down and installed the Merc relief valve setup. Kinda pricey, but now my pressure is maxed at 19-20.

Re: Too Much water Pressure
I've heard about this problem many times but have never experienced it on my 35Ex w/496 HO Mags...anybody had this problem with these engines. I would like to head it off at the pass if it is an issue!
