I'm also running about the same oil pressure. I have the Precision high volume oil pump with the provided shim installed. I need to remember to let the oil warm up before getting in to the throttle. The engine is realitively fresh. The 400 miles I put on it the week before last is the most it's seen yet. I have the black finned lemans valve covers . The addition of the Mobile 1 full synthetic oil that weekend may be impeding breakin . The oil temps fell. I'm hoping the rings will seat some more. I'd like to keep the two PCV vents running into one line and then through one PCV valve for flow control. I'd think that the flow split over two valve covers would lesson the volume form each so not to draft as much oil into the system. If that can't be done I'm thinking a twist in breather right side and the 90° PCV valve I allready have in the left cover routed to the hose and fitting I have located in the bottom of the Plenum. Does the PCV valves depend on being upright as in the valve cover so gravity is acting on the valve?
