Every thing seems fine, start up, warm up all good oil pressure reading. But after a while at idle the oil pressure gauge is almost nothing. Running 20-50 valvaline for brake in. Should I go to straight 60 wt race oil. This car is mostly a track car, or when driven on the street it likes the 5 to 7,000 rpm range. Not a cold weather 914. Thanks, Mark
