Sorry for that but im just really fustrated. Finally engine is done, it went together really well, started it yesterday let it run at 2500 rpm for 20min or so. The thing sounds awsome.
I hooked up a oil pressure gauge to the engine and im getting a really shitty reading at idle less that 20lbs. I know that before the bhg I was getting about 20lbs at idle and about 45lbs or so when driving.
Now what the fuck Im scared to drive it with pressure that low, I know it will probaly be ok but what will happen after a long highway ride, I dont want to do this again :chairshot . The oil pump is new could it be that I got a non-turbo pump by mistake and its not givin her what she needs or could it be somthing else. Anyone else have this problem after a rebuild the search function isnt working.
