All that oil does is keep the rocker arms lubed as they sweep across the tips of the valve stems. Even a tiny seep is sufficient, as the oil flow will increase with the road speed. Spray-oiler engines with troughs in the oil pan and dippers on the rods rarely if ever have more than 20-25 pounds of oil pressure. What weight oil are you running?
