Thanks Denny for that image. I might have to bring the damn thing in. I don't know what it could be now. I pulled and tore the engine down. Took the intake off and checked all expanasion plugs and they all were there. Took off all rockers and lifters/pushrods and then primed the oil pump. I get excellent pressure up through the oil pressure sender port behind the distributor.
While priming I could see some oil coming out of the passenger side lifter gallery in the hole right where you would stick your primer and drill down to reach the oil pump Tang. I could see Some oil coming out of the back of the engine out of the rear drivers side expansion plug which I took out. It didn't come firing out though like it does from the port behind the distributor. Should it come firing out like that port behind the distributor? I would think it would. I noticed after pulling my heads off that I couldn't get oil to come out of that rear drivers side oil gallery in the rear of the engine....does this have something to do w/ pressure? It was just coming out prior to pulling the heads.
I also found after pulling my heads that they were not drilled for steam holes-I knew it and my engine builder said they were drilled. What a jackass.
Well one last thing I did was check my oil pump pickup and it was off by 1/2 inch or so...I don't know if this would have affected that. I readjusted it so it is now 1/4 inch off the bottom of the pan. I never checked the oil flow after readjusting the pickup though. Any other insight would be great so I don't have to make a trip to the machine shop.
