No sweat (Re: late and kinda tired). Read list and posted last night at office after 13 hour makeup day, so I know where you came from. Even mispoke in A/C message (converted R134 system isn't letting too much freon into evaporator, is allowing low side pressure to drop too low, but you know what I meant). If you are fortunate enough to buy a running DeLo, PRV may surprise you. Yes, it could be beefier. But unless engine swap is your first objective, attend to other problems (trust me -- they'll be there) while living off factory block. Before purchase I was all hot and bothered to throw a Vortec back there. Now, I'm passing traffic with the PRV, and STILL haven't fixed all my other problems. Of course would replace before I'd rebuild it, but that crisis is far away. If engine swap IS your primary objective, contact me direct (brobertson(AT)carolina.net) and I'll forward all correspondence and pics in my archive from owners who have done same.
