Highest recored oil PSI
Wondering from you track guys, whats the highest oil PSI you seen? for those running gauges.
|
At operating temp, 0-20 oil. 58psi coming from the port off the top of the engine on my innovate gauge.
|
I'm not really tracking right now, but I'm getting my pressure right off of the pump. What kind of conditions are you wanting to see? Temp, rpm, start-up?
|
I run 10w40 as the builder recommends and on cold start in cold weather it can be north of 100psi measured from the top block port. Once it reaches operating temp it idles at 20psi.

Drilled/tapped at the nipple on the front cover coming right off of the oil pump next to the crank pulley.

With, or without a cooler? With 0-20 I still get what book says I should. 73-ish PSI at 180-ish degF.
115-ish PSI at high idle on cold start |

Which galley are you in? Are you measuring pressure before or after the filter? |

Here's the thread. Here's an image that I haven't put out there yet, because I wasn't sure how the engine would respond. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/pict...ictureid=13102 |
