Using an oil pump intended for the hydraulic engines in a solid lifter =
engine will give you really high oil pressure. The hydraulic lifters =
apparently use alot of oil!
I, unfortuneately, have an ABA short block with the big oil pump and a =
solid lifter head. I run 5W-30 and after startup (not a particularly =
cold day) will see over 100 psi @ 3000 RPM. After it's warm the =
pressures are semi-reasonable.
I think the pressures are just to damn high!
