Just be sure that the pressure doesn't get under the 30# mark. 60-70# is good above 2500rpm. Watch when you have it in and are driving it, that the pressure doesn't begin to drop when you start bringing up the rpm to the high side (5000+)

Question for you: Solid lifters or hydraulic? If solids, did your builder put in the restrictors to the top end? Let me know. There's a simple one that goes into the galley under the center rocker arm stand on each head. Helps a bunch to keep the oil in the bearings where it belongs instead of flooding the valve covers.
