my pdf says between 55 and 65 psi at 30 mph in 4th gear..

On my siamese bore 2 litre , the oil pressure stayed the same no matter where I adjusted the relief valve to it was very difficult to see any apparent difference on the gauge reading as I adjusted the valve

march 1960 workshop manual agrees with the black pdf 55 to 65 psi and shows the oil filter on the pasanger side aka 1954 2l
