If pump died: the Adrenaline pumps have a good reputation.

that is a great point I will look into them or CNC fab​​​​​​.

I observed that my key on engine off ICP is reading around 200 PSI

when I crank it moves to 220-230 psi with IPR maxed. Could it just be a bad sensor?

yeah I can see if it will run off the inferred value.
I would do a dance at this point if that’s all it was. I’ll find out in the morning. I may even have a spare sensor.

I also noticed today that at wide-open throttle I would go to 85% IPR and the oil pressure was reading around 3400 psi. I want to say that before it was holding 3600. Although I did move the sensor with the relocation.

WOT I'm reading 65-70% IPR. 85% could be oil pressure issue.

not yet these are just a value from my SCT x4.
it does not show ICP voltage just pressure which can be inferred or sensor value

What do you have for logging live data?

Unplugging the ICP is a good place to start.

I have not yet found a way to test the pumps. I have recently started to think about testing the pumps (here the late pump - I do not like to change parts if I am not 100% sure that the old part is really defective).

I have a side question for blicharski, Hartwig and Jack if you can help me out on this one.

What did you see for end gap on the piston rings? Did you use new rings or the old ones?

Thanks

To my knowledge, he used the old pistons, but new rings.

On your parts for your engine built, the matching rings should already be mounted on the new pistons when purchased (Mahle).
Or are you just looking for the spec for the gap?

forscan on my laptop. I’ll play with it tomorrow and see what I can find. Either a large oil leak or my pump took a crap. The ICP and IPR values at idle seemed acceptable making me believe at the time there was no excessive leakage. I may put the tow tune back to stock for troubleshooting.
