I have no running oil pressure
I recently built a new motor for my chevy II. Its a 1973 block and I chaged it from a front sump pan to a rear sump with the new motor. That means that I had to put a new oil pump and pickup in it. I have oil pressure when i use a primer and an electric drill. But when i start it up there is no running oil pressure.
A couple of other things, I used the old oil pump driveshaft and everything else is new except the rods. Also I was sure that the oil pump driveshafts in SBC are all the same length. If anyone knows if the driveshaft for the pump in a 66 nova 327 is different cause the pump isn't the same.
Any ideas PLEASE!Last edited by cseay1; 02-14-2005 at 12:45 PM.
In our neighborhood, 2 blocks down the hill was a gas station that (to me) all the cool car guys hung out there. 32 coupes, 33 & 34 Fords as well, a sweet 56 Ford Beach wagon that was setup gasser...
