Cool No Change in noise

I installed the spring a few weeks ago and this is what I got for the effort.

1.) Hot Running oil pressure ~ 5# higher
2.) Hot Idle oil pressure ~ 2# higher
3.) No change in slight ticking from 2000 to 3000 RPM

PS: Buy the time you buy a new cam cover gasket and new Exhaust port gaskets it is no longer a $12 job. Also I had to remove the whole skock exhaust system to get the front pipe out of the way. By far the biggest part of the job. Not difficult but took some time. It is a better spring, you can see that right off. Not sure it was worth the effort though. I think forking out for an after market Oil Pump might have been a better use of my time...
