Subject:Re: Oil pump size differences? Boston Bob Customers?

I am leaning toward a 28mm to help compensate for the lower oil pressure
that is characteristic of a rebuilt
>motor.  Any opinions?
--------------------- Clip ------------------
I'm running Type IV air cooled engines with the stock oil pumps.
I get 80 Psi + on cranking cold, 14-21 on full temp idle 800/900 rpms, 35
psi at 2500 rpms, 50/60 psi at 3300 rpms full temp of 212/220 (F). Oil is
15/50 Mobil 1.
It hasn't changed in the 20K I've put on the engine.
