Stewart LOW volume oil pump. 60 psi in the lights, 30psi, warm idle. Warning light set to 20 psi. Bracket/slow down mode: 6qts of 10W30 Valvoline in the pan for "bracket"/slow down mode. Always a 1061 NAPA Gold oil filter. 4 qts of Zero-10wt RP for a tough heads up. Don't usually need it. I often run bearings two seasons, still look like new, sometimes go ahead and change them due to guilt. Have a drawer full of new looking used bearings.
OK , Ed ..thats useful....thanks.
I thought you said you are using the "newer" version below: The E-bay pan is NOT the same pan......maybe the one below is a better pan?
