Now that i have the correct amount of oil in there the pressure is reading low; It is now sort of a constant 37 psi whereas before it was sort of constantly 65+ psi...I did go from 20w50 to 0w40 which is a dramatic change, but the weird thing is the mechanical gauge (went back to it as the electric was a POS)...The car is running GREAT with the lighter and correct amount of oil, but the low reading at higher revs bothers me...is 37psi just indicative of great flow? Also noticed that the valves have really quieted down. I've read that quite a few guys run 0W40...but is it too light for THIS motor?
