How are you liking the oil pressure compared to the Axtel set up?

Much, much better, I'm running the LMR-2 spring.

Oil is 44-46 PSI hot cruising, with the Axtell set up it was over 60+ PSI hot cruising.

Cold start with the Baisley is 60 PSI, once the motor reaches operating temps it's in the 44-46 PSI range mentioned above.

Same results here, just with the Axtell set up.

You're in the minority there I think. Seems like most run minimum 50+ PSI hot cruising with the Axtell set up.

I have a Jagg 10 row w/ a 140 degree thermostat as well as Wards fans and mine was 60+ PSI according to my DD gauges. Just not comfortable with anything over 50+ PSI.

At cold idle it's around 55-60 PSI. Once the motor reaches operating temperature hot idle is in the low 20's.

And 44-46 PSI hot cruising. The warmer the ambient temperature is will also effect the PSI as well. The hotter the oil gets the PSI will go lower.
