I have no running oil pressure
I recently built a new motor for my chevy II. Its a 1973 block and I chaged it from a front sump pan to a rear sump with the new motor. That means that I had to put a new oil pump and pickup in it. I have oil pressure when i use a primer and an electric drill. But when i start it up there is no running oil pressure.
A couple of other things, I used the old oil pump driveshaft and everything else is new except the rods. Also I was sure that the oil pump driveshafts in SBC are all the same length. If anyone knows if the driveshaft for the pump in a 66 nova 327 is different cause the pump isn't the same.
Any ideas PLEASE!Last edited by cseay1; 02-14-2005 at 12:45 PM.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
