Yesterday I fired up the 318 in the 6x6. It was about 40 deg outside, and I noticed that the oil pressure on the gauge read 85lbs at idle and about 90lbs at high idle. That seems pretty high, but I don't really know. Do the 318s have a relief valve? Once the engine warmed up it still read about 55-60 lbs at idle. Just wondering if this is okay or a problem. The engine is freshly rebuilt, with about 2-3 hours on it (no miles yet).
