So what rpm are you seeing 32psi?
Only frustration that still lingers for me is that I've had to eat the shipping costs...

I don't have the log in front of me at the moment, but as I recall its around 7k (in 3rd gear) that I see that number. I rev this engine to 10k with no problem. Its an aluminum rod 2L (long rod) with solid lifters.... I could rev it further, and believe me, it wants to keep going, but I don't trust the factory oil pump to keep up any further than this.

Any plans to hit the dyno after she's all dialed in/to help dial it in?
Hopefully in the next couple of weeks. I'm going to try to finish up the tune-up on the street so that I can just make a few pulls to see where the power is.
