Default need advice lost 10 psi of o/p

Just what it say's i lost 10 psi of o/p. When i first put the slp ported pump on i had 50 psi at idle .Now after the summer i am at 40-42 ish.

should i pull the engine or not worry about it?it has 36k on it now

I have ran it hard but never cold and always kept good oil in it. just not sure what to do. maybe the pump is the cause i just don't know.

any help would be great .

thanks ,mike

thats still good oil pressure. I personally wouldnt worry about it too muhc but would keep an eye on it just in case. My car also shows 50 psi sometimes then sometimes 40ish.

the weather sometimes is a factor ( makin the oil thick or thin)
