Only 40lbs oil pressure after re-build.

Bimini Top...
Like C Spray said , it's great on rainy days. Also great for overnite , I can even cool the cockpit. Hot sunny days are cooler in the shade. Mine is factory Formula with new cloth. Had it up to 45/50 mph and thats enough. Normally don't run with it up. Barely noticable folded back on the rear...- Mopower
