The Champion radiator arrived yesterday and I installed it. Renewed coolant and started right up. Oil pressure was 55 psi and and after 10 minutes it stayed there and temp gauge stayed in the middle. Took it out for about 10 minute drive and noticed the following. At idle, oil P drops to about 15 and then at 2000 revs it is about 20, 3000 revs 30, 4000 revs 35+ and 5000 revs 50. Is this normal? I thought that at normal driving speeds, 3000 revs, it should be about 40-45. Thoughts??
