Charles, I have Honda rod bearings, std 350" mains and .904 lifters (bushed bores) in mine, and use a pump with shortened gears with a "stuffer" plate to cut volume. With zero wt oil it idles about 15 psi hot, goes to 40 by 2500 RPM. Cold it idles close to 40. Idle speed is 1600.

I don't think sharing what we have learned is stepping on toes.

Take care, Ed
