Nope, no OD on mine. My oil pressure jumps to 55 psi right after I
start the car, and then stays there at pretty much any engine speed,
unless I get caught in traffic and the temp needle gets halfway
between normal and hot. Then the pressure drops to about 40 psi at
idle. All things considered, this sounds a little low for a fresh
rebuild with the high-flow pump and uprated spring. I'll mention it
to the mechanic, especially since you're getting 70 psi with the
stock parts on a recent rebuild. Of course, my gauge could be wonky.
