What's your oil pressure like?At idle,at cruising,and at wot.Thanks

 

In the past Ive run them, fresh motor run 45 or so hot and 60-65 off idle

 

Just don't run a high pressure pump. I twisted a good shaft and wiped out a dist gear in a very short time.

I use a standard pump in 302's and high volume in 351W's.....

 

Thats what i did.meiling standard in my 302 and meiling high volume in 351w.302 pump shaft is small compared to 351w.if really don"t need the more flow stick with the standard,it robs alittle power.make sure to use arp oil pumpshaft.

 

Thanks for the advice guys,but I already put it in when I rebuilt the motor.Got a new one in a trade for some stuff.I guess I'll change it when I put the tubular front end in.Until then,on a high miledge motor is it normal for the oil pressure to drop below 30pounds hot?It stays at 40 then slowly drops off to 28-30 while sitting in traffic.I have about 50-55 crusing,and about 60-70 in the throttle.

 

Nothing wrong with that at all.....

 

my 302 with the standard pump when hot 205.it runs 25-30lbs at idle.

 

Alright,it just worried me a little bit,thanks guys.

 

pressures will depend on the grade of oil as well
