Meh, a customer has been running a (that exact) 2 gallon tank on a 416 for years without issue. Blackstone keeps telling him all is well. Car is on street tires and doesn't run the big boy tracks like VIR so it doesn't see 6000 rpm, high g sweepers very often.
Oil level should be just below the screen after the engine has been off for approximately 5 minutes.
Pressure will drop as the oil warms up, without numbers it is hard to say if your situation is abnormal. 200* oil temp is nothing to be concerned about......300* could be.
Like Blake said, there is air in the oil, that's why it swirls around the tank the way it does, to deaerate.
As was posted on the other site, your vent line to the catch can is a poor layout. You want that line to run uphill to the vent can.
