It sounds like I have come to the fountain of information. What I do with it all is the difficult part. Seems without a complete tear down of the engine I will never know exactly how the engine was set up. Buying someone elses project has some serious risks. The risks of not doing it or having it done yourself means I will always have to wonder. Driving the car today, at 70 -80 mph, 3500 rpm's, water temp 190,
oil temp 230,
oil pressure is at 25-30 lbs. I do love the exceleration (hitting 5000 rpm) when passing cars or getting on the fwy or just having some fun, but I'm not racing track or keeping it cranked up there very long. I'm not looking to tear down the engine but I am interested in a simple fix if that is possible. Changing out an
oil pump and shaft is not a problem. I certainly don't want to creat more problems by putting in too much oil pressure. I still don't know what to do.
