TIM -- DON'T WORRY ABOUT TOO MUCH OIL PRESSURE. THATS A PROBLEM ALOT OF PEOPLE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE. THIS OLD TALE ABOUT SUCKING YOUR PAN DRY IS B/S. YOU MIGHT SUCK IT DRY IF YOU RAN SUPER HIGH RPMs FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME ( LIKE 7500 OR 8000 RPMs) BUT AS LONG AS ALL YOUR OIL RETURN HOLES & GALLYS ARE CLEAR YOU WONT HAVE A PROBLEM. I'VE REBUILT A BUNCH OF MOTORS & PUT MELLING HIGH VOLUME PUMPS IN ALL OF THEM. (NOT JUST WHAT I'VE HEARD) I LIKE OVERSIZE OIL PANS THOUGH WHEN I CAN FIT THEM IN MY PARTICULAR APPLCATION. THE MORE OIL I CAN GET THE BETTER. FOR EVERYDAY DRIVING..... A STOCK PANM IS JUST FINE. RELAX ... AFTER YOU DRIVE IT FOR A WHILE THE PRESSURE WILL COME DOWN. MOST OF THE MOTORS I REBUILD REGULARY PEG THE STOCK PRESSURE GAGE & BLOW A LITTLE OIL OUT THE BREATHER IN THE VALVE COVER. JOHN
SHAWNA -- DON'T WORRY ABOUT PULLING THE INST. PANEL. GET TIM TO PUT AN $12 100 P.S.I. GAGE UNDER THE HOOD. :p
