Not just off-hand..... I *think* he is in the Carolinas somewhere..... but, not 100% on that. I am pretty sure it is mentioned somewhere in his thread..... (yeah, somewhere in 80 some odd pages......)
Could always install a Mega Viper.
I think they are rated to 800 or so.....
Hhhmmmmm....... I think something is amiss with your motor. Even synthetic oil should be that low..... I was thinkin' maybe you were using 0W20, or some such..... THAT might explain it....
I would be real tempted to yank the oil pump, and test it.......
Restriction in the oil passage to the sensor? Maybe?? (see that straw I am grasping at? )
Bed time for me. Got a family reunion we are hosting HERE (my place) tomorrow. Should be fun. I'll be glad when it's over.

Sorry tour it down 3 times now. Everything is correct the first time the pick up time was dented so I thought maybe that, but I think it would cause it to increase not decrease.

That was when I first ripped into it since then had a new pump and has been tore down 3 times with everything being correct. I'm lost. What you said would make sense I was tired when I wrote that lol

Are you just running a stock pump? Have you tried a high volume pump? (or higher pressure pump?)

I can't think of ANY reason your oil pressure should be that low, on a NEW motor. Is your mechanical gauge accurate? Is a plug missing somewhere in an oil gallery? This just makes no sense at all.
