Found my oil PSI issue or so I think
Well as some read my motor had 0 psi at idle but shot up at higher RPM's. The oil pump turned really free with a drill, almost to free.
Dropped the pan last night and found the pick-up tube came out of the pump. So I went and picked up a new high volume pump with a steel shaft and retainer over my old pump and plastic retainer. Put the new pump in an got the new pick-up tube jammed in there really good and put everything back together. Hooked the drill up and spun the pump to prime it and bam she caught really hard and slowed the drill right now. Big difference and the gauge even picked up pressure.
