Hey everybody,
got a new oil pressure gauge today (to replace the Summit unit that stays on
80 when off). well seems we got about 150+ lbs of pressure at about 2500 rpms!
Ruined another gauge (Sunpro stays at 50). This is a fresh motor with the M15
pump. Maybe wrong cam bearings? I mention this because the machine shop did
sell me the wrong main bearings. Phil
