7agze oil pressure
Recently built 7agze with sc14 on 10w40 oil

Was concerned about oil pressure, fitted capillary guage.
Read 28psi on warm idle with clutch in
40-50 psi on normal driving
63 psi max on throttle.

Does this sound ok?

Guage is in PSI

Please help

Listen to the whine.
Not just a carbon copy.

Considering the thickness of the oil you are using i would say the psi you have listed are fine.

Perhaps a little low but definately within limits.

When WOT oil pressure gets around 40-50 then you need to dig deeper because something isnt right.

Personelly for a boosted engine i would look at using 10-50 oil.
