started my 454 after a rebuild and have 50 psi oil pressure but no oil to the heads. This is a 1973 454 with a mild cam and .030 over professional rebuild. all I had to due was put on intakes and carb, and add oil. any ideas?

It sounds like to me that someone left out some oil galley plugs above the cam bore, or the distributor doesn't have the groove for the oil galley. Shoot, the cam bearings could be installed incorrectly too. I'm guessing your pressure gauge is hooked in above the oil filter?
