Now I am not often a cheerleader for many things. My short list of "must have" products are Adex dumps, ProHopper cylinders, Acccurate solenoids, and now, SRS Protector valves.
I recently installed one of these on my wifes Cutlass, and there is NO way I would ever have a juiced car without one. The things are simple as hell and relatively easy to put on. I only wish I had these things from the beginning, since I cant even begin the money I have wasted on blown seals, broken pumpheads, bent cylinders, etc etc.
Here is a pic of me installing one this weekend: (its the chrome block between the dumps)
Simply, it is a mechanical adjustable pressure regulator for your pumps, and installs in the pressure port of your pump, and has an output line that connects to the return on your tank.
Lets say shit happens, and you get a solenoid that welds shut or a switch sticks. Normally the pressure created by a runaway pump can break gears, blow pressure seals, blow cylinder seals, burst lines, swell dumps, etc etc.. all sorts of nasty shit. With one of these little valves installed, all that happens is it detects the increase in pressure and simply diverts the fluid back into the tank!
The thing even works great for every day use. You can literally hold the switch and once the car lifts and pressure begins to spike, the safety opens up and lets the pump harmlessly cycle the fluid. It effectively makes your switches newbie proof, which is exactly what I wanted for my wifes car. Hell, you could even give your switchbox to a 5 year old and let him go crazy, he wont be able to break your shit!
Granted these are not designed for hoppers hitting big inches who rely on sick amounts of pressure, but for everyday cruisers it makes the car incredibly more reliable, safer, and far easier on your system not to mention reduces the amount of time you have to spend replacing seals and broken shit.
They are fully adjustable for any size car of number of pumps. You can adjust the "relief" pressure for any number of pumps or voltages.
Here is a finished shot of the valve installed on her cutlass, along with a set of accumulators:
The guy who makes these is named George, and his company is SRS Hydraulic Systems. He runs a small shop in Lansing, MI and is a really good guy. He sells em for $130 each, and they come fully machined and chromed, its a relatively simple bolt-on install.
You can reach George at:
(517) 394 3895
or
(517) 749 0739
He may be able to hook you up with some discounted prices for LIL members, so be sure to tell him you saw them here.
