    Water pressure in turns?

    So I have 20psi runnin straight and of course it drops to about 10 in the hardest turn I will ever do (which is a river bend). The bend probably takes about 5 seconds to take.
    Is this ok to run like that ???

    you motor runs more off of volume than pressure,so even when the guage drops down your motor is still getting enough water to handle it until you get back straight, so your good..

    Short intervals of low water pressure won,t hurt it... Your engine will beep and let you know before you do it harm...
