Your oil pressure is WAY too high. The old school rule of thumb on a wet sump chevrolet engine was 7 to 10 psi per thousand RPM. Running the pressure that high is going to cause you additional problems over time.

Way too much oil pressure.
What are some of the specs on your motors? Are they blower motors or N/A. The more info the easier it may be to help you.
Im sure you've looked at the obvious but how much oil is in the motor?

The engine doesn't have blowers on it.
Oil Levels are ok.
I think they are 509ci? about 650hp each. They were custom built motors from a company in Jacksonville.
