Re: Need 526 oil pressure/rpm values....

The old timers always wanted the oil pressure set high on those cars.
I wondered about that and checked for data.
Below are two pictures from the period showing the oil pressure at idle on a low mileage 740. It looks like the old timers weren't just practicing religion.
These pictures show 32 psi with the temperature gauge at the G in range.
