Okay so i just completed my 6 bolt swap in my 97 gst spyder an im having a couple of odd problems with my oil. So to give yall some info on the car, i just did a 6 bolt swap with a completey rebuilt engine(still using rebuilt 7 bolt head) an most of my oil components are new including front facing oil filter housing, oil pump, dip stick. The block is bored over .20 an has the bse done. Okay so the first problem is i put 4.5 qts of oil in an my brand new 1g oil dipstick is reading way above the full notch, the second problem is after about 5-10 mins of it running the oil pressure drops almost all the way an doesnt move after that. I am clueless on what todo to fix this but i think it might have something to do with to much oil so any info on that would greatly be appreciated. Also my oil pan is slightly dented so idk if this has to do with the dip stick reading or if my dipstip is screwed up...... i just dont want to listen to my dipstick if its messed up an take to much oil out an it starve my freshly rebuilt engine an mess something up so any info would be great!!
