In Reply To	I suspect the 20w-50 oil has a lot to do with this. posted by OverZealous (CT) on February 14, 2013 at 03:50 PM
Message	I have done the exact thing as Evan and ran HD30 oil while breaking the motor in. Went to the same royal purple grade oil as him after the breaking in period and now for the first 15 to 20 minutes the oil pressure is always high until everything warms up and begins to hover around 60 psi.
