Oil pressure question

OK, I'm going to step right into the line of fire here, and ask what's so bad about the oil pressure figures you're seeing? If you've got enough pressure, and more important, volume to keep everything lubricated (i.e. you're not burning cam bearings, pushrod tips or rocker arms), why are you worried? Ask the majority of Stock and Super Stock guys what kind of pressures they see from the starting line to the traps and I think you'll relax. I haven't seen 50 psi for decades, at any time.
