firered it up cold had 65 pounds at 1800 rpms on my tack after it warmed up for 15 minutes at idel in park i have 35 drop it in first idel at 900 rpms it has 17 pounds.This is a stock oil pump.I think thats ok what do you boysss think.
 
what does it make for pressure hot at 1500? 2500? what rpm does the pressure peak and at what pressure?
 
I did all kinds of oiling mods, drilling, hogging, and my truck, with 20W50 in it, idles at 800 with 7psi. And thats a Hi VOl Pump too. By 1500rpm it is at 30 tho, and 75 by like 3K.

Your pressure sounds good to me.
 

For a stock pump, I'd be looking for the 15-20 at hot idle (under 900). It should ramp up to 25-35 around 1500 and be closer to 45-50 at 3K. Most stock pumps peak at 55 which is fine for 5500-6K. When I modify pasages I get about the same readings, but the max pressure is up to 65 by 4K.
