Mc,
Rode today and observed the oil pressure at 50 mph. Runs at approx. 42-45. Rpms are at about 2500 with the 3.37 gearing and low profile tire I'm running. Readjusted my idle to 1150-1200 rpms using my tach, and when hot, (200 deg.), it idles at 19-20 psi. The gauge pegging only occurs when you start it up dead cold. You can see the pressure relief valve working as it will vary between 50-55 psi at a fast idle off the enricher at approx. 1400 rpms. Hope this helps clarify what I was trying to say in my last post. Motor is quiet other than you can here the expected "whir" of the gear driven cams.
I rolled into the throttle today, 2nd and 3rd gear and it will drive right out from under you. Got into 4th and had 90 mph showing on the speedo faster than I'm used to seeing and I hadn't even wound it up.
Probably the most impressive aspect of the whole build is the 5th gear roll on feels like the 4th gear roll on used to. I'm pretty happy with the work I did this winter. The 37 cams seem to work great.
