Have 65psi cold at idle… let it warm up to 180 and the oil pressure dropped to around 40psi. I’m a happy camper with those numbers.

Plated it and took the truck for a spin around the block… first trip I had the idle speed screws in a little tight… truck stalled after coming to a stop. Backed them out half a turn and the second trip around the block went better.

Brakes need to be bled a bit more… they are there but on the soft side.

Pretty sure my neighbors already hate the truck… which validates it as a Hot Rod thumbs_up
