I have had the adjustable valve and reset everything, and it dropped from 85# at idle to 63# at idle ! But when you winged the throttle the pressure still would go over 110# !!!! I've talked to several well known Hemi builders and was told to get a Stock pressure oil pump, and use the Milodon cover and filter mount ! I blocked off one of the oil pickup's in the oil pan, and I don't have the new pump yet, possibly Sat ! Thanks again, I'll post after I get the new pump setup ! I've raced Mopar's for years as in 30+ years and never had this problem ! Wish me luck !!! John
