Oil Pressure ???
Ok I just finished installing a VRX5 cam, melling high volume oil pump (10296), TEA Dual springs, timing chain, and all the goodies. My question is what should be oil pressure be at idle when the oil is completely warm? When I accelerate though the rpms the pressure rises perfect and seems to have no problems. My oil pressure is about 40-45 at idle with it completely warm is that normal or bad? Thanks

And I have approximately the same set up.
