Re: oil pressure #

Re: oil pressure #
That sounds average to higher then average when the motor is cold, it should come down to the teens to twenties when fully warmed up depending on your idle speed.

Re: oil pressure #
More power to your awesome oil pressure. Do you have oil restrictors in your heads?
