when hot 45 pis above 3000 rpm if all is in good order, and about 15 pis at idle when hot.
the Burton pump is the same as the stand pump the only difference is the pressure relief valve spring has be uprated, but the pump mechanics are the same.

Cheers

Depends on what oil your running, and oil temp?

But with say 10/40 semi oil,
should be
70-90psi depending on rev's when stone cold,
15-20 @ idle and 45-50oC over 3500 rpm with oil at 80oC.

Mine is about that, well, 55 when cranking, 60-70 when just turned on.

At full temp its about 10 at idle.
