When I start the M1008 its right around 45psi cold, and when it gets up to around 200F its at around 15-20psi. It jumps right back to 40 when driving.

I was wondering what the rest of you guys are pulling for numbers? I know the general rule is 10psi for every 1K Rpm.

Pegs a 100 lb. gauge cold, 85 hot on the road. Hot idle around 35. I have less than 10000 mi. on rebuilt engine and use Rotella 15-40.

90-ish cold. 60-70 hot on the road. 35-40 hot idle. I also have a turbo setup that I added to mine. The speedo says 19K miles, brake and gas pedal aren't worn to make me think it's 119K FWIW.
