I believe the part is updated from the original by the addition of some sort of spring that holds pressure on the tensioners. For some reason, I haven't been able to find it via search.

Could someone please let me know what parts I need for this upgrade, and is it truly compatible with my '98?

Has anyone done the upgrade and arrived at an acceptable outcome?

Thanks!

I think you’re talking about the oil pressure relief valve with the updated bevel and spring. There is no additional spring that holds pressure on the tensioners. No guarantee that this will cure the startup valve train chain rattle. Just Google ‘986 oil pressure relief valve’ for more info.
