Oil pressure
I took my 31 RPU out for a nice run the other night. This block has 6.1 head, insert bearings and a down draft. When I started out my REX-A-CO gauge pegged at 6. By the time I got home, the needle was barely floating. I was running Brad Penn green oil. The next morning I did an oil change using 40 Pennsoil. When I started and drove the car, the pressure was again at 6. As the engine is run and gets warmer, should the pressure remain at 6 or drop slightly or even disappear? I want to do touring, but right now am afraid to move. Thoughts or opinions?
Thank you
Warren
