I have started to become aware of an oil pressure problem that I have had for
a bit now.
When the car is started and running the oil pressure runs at 75-80 lbs.
As the car warms up the oil pressure starts to drop untill after about an hour
of running it is running @ 30 lbs.
The engine was a complete overhaul with the frame off, I have replaced the
relif valve and spring , the pump is new and I'm running an oil bypass to the
head. I use 10-40 valvoline in the car.
Is this normal with heat or is there somthing I should be looking at.
Thanks
