I never had any concerns with the oil pressure in my car but I figured, as long as I am in there, why not. The ported/shimmed pump is supposed to give you more flow and more (+10psi) pressure. Its a win win in my book.
thats how i feel about it as well. Ive just heard guys say it didnt add the psi it said it should or at all!
Here is the video. The car currently has Metal Matrix cats on it as well as an Ti exhaust. I think a more aggressive exhaust is in order!!!
Real cool chevy guy. It sounds good. Im going to send my vette to the tuner this sat. He will have it for a week. Your oil pressure looks real normal. My oil pressure is up to 70 psi at idle. I dont know if thats normal or not. When i give it a little gas, it jumps up to 80. Hopefully mine is ok. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKgyOP0vUOg

Nice job and a great cam. I have the same one in my 02Z. The only thing I would have done different is swap out the balancer for an upgraded unit. LS balancers are notorious for seperating at the rubber ring. After going through the trouble and expense of adding the 2 pc timing cover, thats one thing you should have done in addition. You might still be doing it soon. Now that you added hp, youll be tempted to spin the engine up a bit more than you used to. The stock balancers dont like that.
A week? Why? My tuner had my car 2 hours while I watched.
Hows it going 81c3. Well, Hes going to do a dyno tune and do a street tune. He wanted a couple of days for that to make sure its right. Plus hes installing a piller pod dual gauge set for me.(fuel pressure and air/fuel wideband). And the main reason, which this one really sucks, i work out of town monday threw friday. Ill pick it up the following sat.Cant wait to feel the new power.
