I go by the simple mode of 10 psi per 1000 rpm , but I can't confirm the 50 psi at 5k. My Boston Bob motor has nigh on 100k on it and has similar OP to Ken's readings. I wonder how much higher the cold start up pressure really is, since my VDO gauge only goes to 70. I have a 0-100 VDO gauge, but I was saving it for a CS injection system where you need to see above 70psi.... DM&FS |
