SBC No oil pressure
Hey guys,
First off this is my first time posting here so I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum..
I recently purchased another race car what is a Dirt Modified race car with a 602 small block Chevy crate engine. It's been running good but today I changed the oil and now I am not getting oil pressure..I only cranked it about 5 times and not over 3 seconds each time..am I just not priming it long enought just after a fresh oil change? I check on the block where the adapter is for the oil pressure gauge and took off the adapter and when I crank the car (ignition off) nothing squirts out and I checked the oil filter and its full of oil.. I hope it's just as simple as not turning the car over enought and nothing internal because per the rules the GM seals can not be broken.
Thanks so much for any help!
