o.k. no hv oil pump??? would a oil cooler be of any help?? I am using a electric oil guage, which I know are not the most accurite. what would be the lowest psi at idle, before i would be doing damage? would you be too concerned with a bbc running 5-10 psi for long period of time???( like following behind a crowd at a show)
try the oil and see were your at 10 psi is ok there is no real load on the engine should be ok. on the cooler that would be up to you i would try a 20-50 wt oil first
going back to the HV pump, I am using a truck oil pan & a 2quart oil filter. would that let me get by with the HV pump.?
how many QT truck pan ? the small truck pan is not any bigger then the small car pan .but you could getaway with the two qt oil fillter should be ok
the large truck pan(5 qt. pan , plus 2qt oil filter, =total 7 quarts), not the 4 quart. how many sizes did they make in 1974?? will 7 quart be enought for a HV pump?
yes thats ok they made two pans for trucks i think like i said they made a 4qt and a 6 qtQuote:
