    What's your engine setup? Modifications to oil pump, pickup, or pan?

    Just in case....

    Check the oil level. Make sure it's not low.

    I think its time for a new motor. The oil pressure isn't as good as I'd like it to be anyway. And its got some wear. I've seen deals for a referbrished 302 block for 600 bucks. Are these good deals? Maybe I can swap my parts over to complete it. While I'm at it put some alum heads.
