Ok I'm hoping you guys can help me. Over the winter I installed some indy alum heads, I started the car today for the first time, it fired right up, little noise from the valve train, no big deal. Trouble is after a few seconds I usually have oil pressure, I waited a little longer about 15 seconds, no pressure. I have mechanical gauges and it takes about 5 seconds to get pressure every year on the first start, takes time to fill the line to the gauage. today still no oil in the line at all. I'm thinking the oil pump just went out? any ideas, or suggestions? Motor is a 440, no issues at all last year.




pop a valve cover and see. did the valve train quiet down, if so I would suspect your gauge or the line clogged over the winter.
