Subject:      Oil pressure in 1.9
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

I have an 85 Westy that I overhauled recently.  I am wondering what is a
decent oil pressure.  When I start out cold it is 70-80 psi, but on the
highway at 3800 RPM's it often falls to 25 or 30 PSI.  Is this something
that I should worry about??  It kinda has me freaked out, given the fact
that I overhauled it myself.
