hey retro,
I'll try and see what it does tonight, when I'm off work, might be starvation, acceleration is manic in this car now,
what I thought was, that the relief valve popped open, at 6500rpm, because that's the point most 4age's develop to much pressure which is then regulated by the relief valve, after popping open It might have not been able to close up again because of... ???. my engine has been sitting for many years.
It runs great, not ticks or anything, but I'm not happy with the 37PSI at high RPM, everywhere I look I hear people talk about 60-70 PSI at higher RPM.(except from you off-course)
so the question remains. has anyone got a scientific explanation with a reason oil pressure has dropped that sudden and that far 
PS oil type is: Shell 10W40
regards Thomas
