what oil are you running thread...

That is the other thing to remember... Higher pressure is not always a good thing. Flow is more important than pressure. Pressure could mean a restriction hence lack of flow.

I may have lower pressure but I have great oil flow.

What makes you think that you have great flow? Just curious

Oil Analysis showing wear levels, No lifter tick, No spun bearing, Just general accusation really.

Good reading here of Flow Vs. Pressure: Automotive and Industrial Lubricants - Causes of High and Low Oil Pressure

Ive noticed that oil pressure in 3s's from the point of the stock sender location is greatly a function of just oil weight, oil pump and bearing clearance, not much else.

Maybe we should open a discussion on ideal placement of aftermarket senders for oil pressure and temp?

It still has to do with pressure. Even though the sender is on the pump itself, the restriction in flow throughout the oil galleries and bearings feeds back to the sender as that is the amount of pressure that the pump is working against to pump the oil through the system.
