Not that likely

Not that likely as I have restrictors in the heads. My rocker shafts do have two holes per rocker, one top, and one bottom...I plan to change this shortly. I havn't been able to get at the car for some time, but will this week. Plan to drop the pan and check #4 main bearing as well as the oil pump. Oil pumps typically never fail, but I am suspicious in this case. Usually, a reduction in oil pressure is almost always worn main bearings, but....After all, with a hot engine and 40 psi at 1300 rpm, what other reason could I have for not being able to achieve over 41 psi no matter what the revs? And "yes", the gauge has been checked out and works perfectly.
This thread, so far...
