    oil pressure

    this is for my acclaim its running a 89 T1 with the balance shalfts removed.

    my oil pressure drops the higher the RPM goes, this is the reverse of what I want correct? is something really really foobar? im not a mechanic, im just winging it.

    Did you plug the BS hole? Is it still plugged? If not it is likely a bearing issue == fubar.

    Re: oil pressure

    Is this on an engine you were using and noticed the problem after removing the balance shafts? Is this with stock or custom guage? I have and various TD's that would register lower pressure at higher rpm due do defective, worn or dirty stock sending units.
    Thanks

    There is no logical reason to call an Engine a motor.
