Big block Oil pressure. Jerry
I lost oil pressure in my big block. Found something passed through the oil pump and stuck the pressure bypass open. I think it was without pressure for only a short time. I hate to tear it all down. Would I be able to see if there was low pressure damage by pulling the front rod cap off? Seems like signs of low pressure would show up there first.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
