[QUOTE="bigja01cobra, post: 13791396, member: 91090"] I have a mechanical gauge installed, plus I put another on just to verify. Regarding oil pressure. I know these mod motors need better pressure then the basic 10 psi per 1000 rpm in the lower RPM band. Think about all the moving parts in this motor with the 4 cams and tight clearances; pressure is needed to push the oil to properly lubricate. Yeah depending on how bad the crank is will determine if I do it myself. I am hoping I can get away with just a polish and new mains. The I guess Ill drop $200 for the cam timing tools, maybe upgrade to some adjustable cam sprockets to degree cams a little easier. [/QUOTE]
