Merc 525sc oil cooler question
I need to know how many HP the stock Merc oil cooler can be handle?
I am arond 700-750 HP now with upgrade aluminum head and b&m 250 blower at 9 psi of boost. So the problem that i have is my oil pressure drop from 60 psi at (130f engine temp) to 50 psi after hard run at 155f engine temp and at 5500-5600 rpm. I think that is because the cooler is too small Any thought about this would be appreciated. |
Measuring the oil temp is the only real way to know. Use an IR temp gun and take a reading from the oil pan.
A 10psi drop in oil pressure after a hard run is normal. |
all the oil lines, cooler, filter adapter need to be upgraded to handle that HP, merc stuff is pretty much junk...run all 1/2 fittings and #10 line...
