so here it is, the motor sounds sweet. fires up every time ,65 70 oil pressure at start up. 25 to 30 psi at hot idle ( 180 to 190 degrees ). 45 psi at 2000 rpm. is this normal, it seems when i fire it up after seating for a day or overnight, it sounds like a dry start kinda rough sounding, only for about 1 to 1 1/2 second's then it sings like a singer sewing machine. and say i start it up after waiting say 3 to four hours, starts right up with no roughness, just purrs, don't even need to give it gas. i'm trying to ease my mind, i have a good idea what it is and just wanna confirm it with a consences. i have a 401, edlebrock heads, harland sharp rocker rollers, comp cam, proform dizzy,new timeing cover new gears new adapter, air gap intake, power master starter, 670 truck avenger, dydraulic lifters. thanks mikey
