I have 80 psi Hot Oil Pressure with the 350 TBI Engine I built.
Quiet.
Running smooth on all 8 cylinders .
Cold startup oil pressure is over 100 psi.

I used a Melling M55A oil pump.
1967-1970-1/2 Z28 oil pump.
Bone stock.
Checked took it apart.
.002 gear endplay to bottom cover.
ARP Race oil pump driveshaft.
.0015" main & rod bearing clearances.
I used .001 " over sized Vandervell Lead Indium Babbit Main & Rod Bearings.
Red Cleavite Bearing Guard Assembly lube.

My luck with this much oil pressure it would be blowing oil out every seal and gasket it could find. Never thought an engine ever needed more than 40psi when hot, even with a larger oil pan/capacity. Mfgrs. specs never called for that much, I don't think.

Every single stock 1967-1969 Z28 Camaro had 75-80 psi oil pressure.
1970-1/2 z-28 Camaro LT-1 too.

1969 Pontiac Ram Air V 400 ci had a 80 psi oil pump.
1973-74 SD455 had a 80-psi oil pump stock.

The Melling oil pump M55A I took off the old TBI 350 Engine.
Took apart & cleaned throughout.
Checked, Zero wear so I reused.
The same pump has 50,000 miles use in my old failed TBI engine.
The engine never leaked a drop of oil.

I have learned to listen to no one.
Because no one else posts their builds start to finish like I have here in detailed steps with hundreds of photos & write ups.

Its actually pointless.
Leaves you to open attacks.

Better off never ever posting your personal projects.
Or just post finished product.

If you notice that is what every single professional racer does.
Just post the finished product or car(s).

Also why none want to post their builds start to finish....they have watched me be vicious attacked here on Grumpys & Digital Corvette.
 
Yeah no one.
Same cars.
Same old stuff Rick.

You and Dorian are untouchable .
You are the Moderators.
I am not.
What do I get ?
Abused.
 
My Bud Ed says them.

Because I am Real.

The Smart thing to do is never post personal projects unless your the Moderator .
A single photo or You Tube video of your car or truck done is all I will do for now on.
 
The original layout of Grumpys Performance is Ingenious .
Grumpy was on Corvette Forum original like me.
Borrwed copy & paste pictures .
Links to read.
At times a short Ancidote by.himself .
Eliminating all potential viscous attacks.
 
I still remember his personal invite to his Forum here when I was on Digital Corvette.
He watched silent for 1 year.

How much longer will he be silent? You both /you and Grumpy are worth more in info than any two I've met lately. Just wish you would not brag about it so much and tell everyone else we are chicken for not street racing. Big money, big mouth, big balls will cost BIG BUCKS if caught or kill someone other than yourself. LMDAO

Its a personal goal.
I have been called a Phony Fake Mechanic since Day 1.
I proved my Net worth other than Street Racing A Hellcat.
The Hellcat was built to Conquer all Street Racing.
99 % sucess rate.

No young blood left here or Digital Corvette.
They are gone.
Phil was the last here.
 
Thousands of You Tube Vids of guys street racing.
Watch yourself .

All BS! I've been around Before you on CF,DC and here and nobody ever said any such thing. Start posting any proof!

Secondly, No auto manufacture has ever endorsed "Street Racing" and certainly not Dodge now with the Hellcat!
Street Racing, unless legally sanctioned and safety precautions are in place is Illegal on any public street.

No Offense tonight.
You don't have an ounce of Young Man's Blood left in You.
The Musclecar 1964-74 started by Pontiac with the 1964 GTO Was geared for Young Men.
Development by Old Men.
Street Racing was the Intention.
Ended with the 1974 SD-455 Trans Am.
There was a short rebirth 1980's.
Buick Grand National, C4 TPI Corvette, & 5.0 Mustang.
Hellcats are the New Musclecar.

I looked around DC .
OLD MEN.
DON'T GIVE AN OUNCE OF SHEET ABOUT THE YOUNG GUYS.
THERE IS NO YOUNG GUYS THERE .
OR HERE.
 
Somebody explain to me what this "young and old BS has any relevancy to post # 412 (or anything really)
Except Brian, I already read his explanation.
 
Can you Carry any conversations without attacks on people's ages on Internet boards? What does my or anybody's age have to do with your assertions of racing and your claim that people say you're a fake mechanic?
It's funny how once you discover your nonsense can't stand up to debate you then resort to name dropping people from other forums and spurious facts.m
