how much oil pressure is too much?

[CHANCE]

and what happens if i dont

If I were you I would leave it alone. If the motor was built to have that much pressure than why change it? I guess if you really wanted to, you could get a lower volume oil pump.

Never thought about lowering pressure but maybe using a thicker gasket on the oil pump cover??? Other than that, the things I am thinking about involve removing the engine and tearing into it.

It seems that it should be possible to mount a mechanical gauge in the place. I know on the other end, the take off is simpler and smaller so that side should not be a problem but I certainly understand NOT wanting to undo the GNX type dash. ****It would, however, be a good idea to at least verify the oil pressure with a good mechanical gauge before making any other changes.****
