Boarder Line Low Oil Pressure

I had a professor in college say in our engine rebuilding class, to run the thinnest oil the engine wants.
This is comming from a guy who raced AC cobras when they were new.

With this line of thought you could reverse the words and say the thickest it asks for! :)

I currently have a low pressure 318. Before I tear into……the car and install a 340…….its getting thicker oil!
