Ok new here and this is somewhat long story…
I am going to use Guy1 and Guy2 in the story. The motor was rebuilt 2.5 years ago but only driven for 5 months. Guy1 rebuild the motor and put a turbo on it. Guy1 drives it for 5 months and kept having tranny problems with it. Guy1 did not have time to fix it because he got acceptance to the State Trooper Academy and sold it to Guy2. Guy2 never install it or ran it, it just sat there for 2 years. Guy2 decide to sell it so I bought it from him. I got the motor and the only problems I am having is no oil pressure at idle and at 2000 rpms I am only get 5 psi. Every time I hit the gas, it goes up slowly. I am using a mechanical oil pressure gauge and still no oil pressure. There is no noise or knocking coming from the engine. It starts up on the first turn. Some of my friends are telling it is the oil pump and some think it is the bearing but I primed it before starting it and getting oil up in through the motor. Only thing I did not check if I was getting oil up to the rockers. I need HELP!!!
new stuff I added was:
3000 stall
Trick flow Stage 1 Cam
Comp Cam push rods
Comp Cam lifters
