GZ Motorsports High Volume Pressure Release Valve

GZ Motorsports High Volume Pressure Release Valve

GZ Motorsports LLC is proud to announce our new high volume pressure relief  or blow off valve.  Made from 6061 Billet Aluminum stock, it is a two piece adjustable valve that relieves pressure in the engine from excessive blow by. It is activated at below 2 psi pressure. The part number is VCB100B which consists of a base with a nylon washer and nut that can be installed in a standard grommet hole in a valve cover or placed in a valley pan and a top that may be removed to replace the spring of Teflon ball inside. The top has an o-ring between it and the base to which is attached.  Once the valve is activated the blow-by gases are vented through a fitting in the top which may be routed to a catch can or other means of containing fluids in the gases.

A pressure relief valve (blow off valve) is essential for any blown or power added high performance engine with a Vacuum Pump or limited breathing.  It is wise to install one on engines with Vacuum pumps as well do to very limited breathing when the pump is not functioning.

Call GZ Motorsports LLC at 209-296-3793 or visit our web site GZMotorsports.com for more information.
