One more thing. I have an oil leak in my rear main seal and I don't know if its the reason my oil pressure is looking lower. Can that have a major affect on the preformance on a car?

Re: Oil Pressure question
Unless it is pouring out like crazy , then no. if it is just leaving little oil spots then your oil pressure should still be good along with performance, unless you have a bearing going out.08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake

Re: Oil Pressure question
Mine has a slight rear main seal leak and I can notice a very slight difference in oil pressure when it's leaking. Typically this is when the car is hot and sitting at a stop. The needle will slightly dance at each end of the 60psi mark.
How much lower is your oil pressure?'99 Camaro
