      About 65 psi cold, and it flutters between 58-62 when hot.. But I've noticed that's only on days that are around 90F. Cooler weather it seems to just hold at 65 or so.

      Voltage... 14 without the fog lights on.. 13.5 or so with them on.

          y not synthetic?
          Heady, I guess I'm just cheap. :D

          Actually, I only put about 6000 miles a year on my Camaro so I won't get the value out of synthetic. Synthetic makes sense when you drive a lot of miles.

            I modified my oil press regulator.

            I now get 95 psi when the engine is cold or when it is at off idle rpm.

            During a hot idle it drops to 65psi.
