I finally got the new oil pressure gauge on this evening and was happy with the reading. The old sensor was a bear to get off, I had to use a hacksaw blade between the frame and header to cut the pipe going to the Tee. The canister type sensor was just spinning and it hit the block so the only thing I could think of was to cut it off.

Dr. Appointment for my wife yesterday ECHO test and Dr. appointment for me this morning follow up for the sinus surgery but I just had to see what was going to happen. After the reading I pulled the Valve cover off the passenger side and it looks like number 8 is getting oil. The idle I'm not sure since I don't have a tach but just guessing it's maybe 1000 rpm. I put 20w40 I couldn't find 20w50 but I'm going to run it just a little longer then change the oil and filter again.
