oil pressure

Rev · 02-13-2005, 08:31 PM

Oil pressure seems OK to me as well. As the viscosity decreases with warm up, you actually get more oil to the bearings. What does it read at 4000 rpm warmed up.? That would be my question?

Some guys go to great lengths to jack up the oil pressure. All that does is rob power from the engine IMHO.

My car has 10 psi oil pressure at the traps, at 120 MPH around 6 grand on the tach, ON PURPOSE.

You're fine bro!
