4637, oil psi
Posted by klipzracer, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
i was kinda wondering what's our average oil psi at the following for those of you who have oil pressure guages.
idle-20 to 25psi
cruising(3,000rpm)-40 to 50psi
6,500rpm to redline(7,200rpm)- 80 to 90psi
does this sound good. i also got the ol' leaking head gasket syndrome. could that cause pressure drop? and how about performance drop? car seems a lil sluggish lately.

Yup, my oil pressure readings are very similar to what yours are; you should be OK.

What gauge do you guys use?
I was thinkning of an autometer, but everyone with a 4G63 says they max them out all the time..????
Thanks!
