Well i just got my car running again i just installed: BS elim kit, 272's, SS valves, Manley S&R's, 3g lifters..... And a 90 oil cooler housing

Now i just got it started and my stock oil pressure gauge is not working anymore and the low oil light flickers every once in a while.
-I rechecked the oil and it is full
-There are NO oil leaks
-Popped the oil cap and there is oil spitting off the cams
-Slowly unscrewed the bango bolt for the turbo feed and oil squirted out.

Soo... I am obviously getting oil pressure it is just not showing it. Is there anything to do with the wiring or am i just missing something?
 
It is probably just a bad sending unit if you are seeing oil pressure at the head. Get a new stock one or better yet, get a real oil pressure gauge so you can see the exact pressure you have.
 
Yeah that was gonna be my plan for tomorrow. My friend gets 20% off autometer :p

I took it for a test drive about 5mins ago. And nothing funny has happend yet....
