Re: Oil pressure @ performance?
When I change from straight weight 30-40w conventional race oil used for break in to synthetic Amsoil 5w-20 Dominator, not only does my oil pressure drop, I have to turn down the idle rpm!
I forgot the exact #'s on both, but it's obvious and gets your attention. |

Re: Oil pressure @ performance?
I remember when putting 454 oil pumps on sb's was all the rage. This post has me wondering if you can run a sb pump on the 454? Special shaft???? Stock shaft??
