That's a relief, thanks guys.

So if it pegs an 80 psi gauge, then that would be too much?

And what would be the best filter to be getting?

I used Purolator in the old 230L6, because that it what the closest place that sold filters had. But I want to treat this "new" engine to the best. I have no hot rodder history (vintage MX guy here) and am a complete newby to SBC350 care and feeding.
