I talked (internet) to a racer that rigged a oil pressure gauge to the scavenge side of his car....a few years ago.
He said he saw up to 165 lbs at cold start. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Then there was this idiot who missed plumbed his thermostat
and blew his Fluidyne cooler....prolly went to 300psi+.
I can't imagine how I....he did that. I understand he got away with it for bout 2 months... till one cool morning. It pays to have a thermo with a pressure by-pass....or so I hear (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
