Appreciate it for dumbing that down for me.

just another quick question. well i did ask if but i'm assuming you might not know. Would you know what good oil pressure for a built fa20 would be? I'm asking because once I got her idling, I was expecting the oil pressure (60-80psi) to drop to around 50psi, i believe the oil temp was 150F-160F. It was just alarming to see it drop so fast to 30psi. i think i changed pants after that.

The lowest i saw it was at 20 psi at 175F. (5w30 conventional currently in the car)
