Oil And Oil Pressure ??

[GN ERGY]

What oil do you guys run and what oil pressure do you have at warm idle and at lets say 65mph? I'm running MOBIL 1 10w30 and I'm getting 40lbs. pressure at 65mph. Open to any suggestions and comments. Motor has almost 52k. mi. on it
Thanks Tarey D.

I run regular 10-30 and at warmup at 65 mph i get about 55 psi or so.

I couldn't live with 40lbs. at 65 mph. I have about 50 to 55 at that speed. If you'd like to have more oil pressure, my suggestion would be at least move to 10W 40.

Myself, I run 5qts of 10-40 and the rest 50W on an oil change.

Another choice would be to install a booster plate or hi volume pump. Easier to try running heavier oil first.
