Oil Pressure
I was watching videos of my boat running. I currently have 60hours on my 525sc (468/572hp) motor. No issues at all. I have a new livorsi electric oil pressure gauge and sender, verified with a mechanical gauge. I have a Melling M77HV pump. I have a hot idle pressure of 20-22psi, at 3500 its at 50psi, at 4500 its still 50psi. The engine runs perfect. Would you pull the motor to swap to a 10778 pump?

i would have started with a 10778 because it is a better pump but to answer you,r question,i would not pull the engine now as it will be fine the way it is.what wt and brand of oil are you using?

Seems like I should leave it alone. It either gets idled for 10 min out of the marina or run 4000-5000 rpm, not much in between. I am kinda hoping with 60 hours on it, I am in the clear.

I am running this https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sme-2015 bypass eliminator on the block with this spin on adapter. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/trd-1050
if you look, the left hole on the spin on adapter does not line up with the center hole. I wonder if switching adapter setups would help. maybe to this? https://www.summitracing.com/parts/ctr-22-592/overview/
