Thicker oil will raise the oil pressure already.

How much oil pressure do you have now at idle and at 7500 rpm?

Run an oil pressure gauge, when the numbers start to decline put in a new ap2 oil pump and that is all you need to consider. I wouldn't run more than a 40 weight oil in these engines, your oil temps wouldn't be high enough to warrant a 50 weight.

Not to mention most 50 weights are pure racing oils, meaning their additive packs are not what you would want to put in a daily driver.
