idk..... but i would think its been over filled with oil. other than that if you dont have any oil consumption issues then i'd say you're safe (sort of).

on my rx-7:
also with any oil pressure, it rises as rev's climb until it reaches a regulated limit. usually the higher pressure delivers more oil to cool the motor.

but i have no clue how oil delivery behaves on a piston motor.

on startup oil pressure is significantly higher cause the oil is cold and hasnt warmed up. but damn 120psi? are you sure
