First long distance outing was driving to Cal Speedway on Saturday to the Porsche Festival of Speed. Tons and tons of Porsche's and some good racing. Car ran like a top to and from the event. Only issue I had was low oil pressure at idle (right around 7lbs) when hot (180F). I'm hoping that the root cause is that I still have about a 50% of the total volume oil being Brad Penn Break-In Oil (30wt) as I can only drain about 6-7 quarts out of the 11-12 quarts it holds. If it doesn't improve after the second or third change I'll probably pull the pump and change from a gasket and sealant to just the sealant (Loctite 518) to try and decrease the clearance between the cover and the pump gears.
Good news is the oil cooler works like a charm (never saw more than 180F) and head temps are close to perfect (350F-375F on the freeway at 72mph). I'd like to drop 25F on the heads if I can. I'm planning on testing taking 2 degrees of timing out. I may also up my air correction jets from 180 - 200 to bring the mains on a bit sooner. |
