    oil pressure

    ok i got my motor finished putting together, tried to prime up the oil system I can't get any pressure, the machine shop didn't pack the oil pump so I put oil thru the sending unit hole, still no pressure, do I need to pull the pump apart and pack it?

    Turbo size

    So I'm refreshing this motor, I've heard it had some work done to it. It has forged Pistons arp bolts. It had a small lunati cam. Gonna put a new cam in it. It's supposed to have a bigger turbo but I don't know what size, can you tell without taking it apart?

    Lowering springs

    im glad i found this thread, was just fixing to get the BMR springs. I noticed the springs at BMR are for all g body, according to moog the front are mostly used in v6, some 305s, so they're probably a smaller load spring.

    oil pump clearance

    looks like a new cover, its got Timing chain cover on it, so im sure its Chinese. yea i put a edge from a square across the cover, you could still spin the idle gear, i got a .005 feeler gauge to fit smooth.

    oil pump clearance

    ok im checking the clearance on these gears on this car I got that has low oil pressure. its got a aftermarket timing cover on it, i laid a straight edge across the gears and theyre .005 in the hole, the gasket i pulled off is .006 used. isnt that to much clearance?

    Remote oil filter

    Just got this 87 GN, I'm redoing the turbo oil line, previous owner teed the oil pressure gauge into it. I'm changing over to a remote oil filter, what size hose comes with the kits you buy?
