Sorry for all the posts, is Nick's oil gauge is reading around 20psi when the engine is fully warmed up; is that ok? I seem to recall between 25-50psi being ok, but that may be for my RV8 engine!

My S1 shows about 55psi when cruising, dropping back to about 20 when idling warm, so sounds like you are about right. As Jim says; Enjoy!
