I tried the switching valve with my '86 swap. I will tell you for sure, that switching valve won't hold up for very long. A small "drip" turned into fast flowing "run" after a few test runs. Those things are designed for 58 psi & under. If S&P used a "re-popped" valve, I doubt it will last long under LS requirements. If their valve handles greater than 60 psi, then they should definitely make that WELL-KNOWN for enthusiasts who will benefit.
