So this is an issue i still need to address from when i rebuilt my 340. When I got the car it had a recent piston ring job so I was told and when i ran it, there was no smoke or anything so I went about giving her some attitude. I put a big cam, long tube headers, high rise intake, 750 carb, heads re-machined and valve job etc and she runs awesome! And the response is just rediculis. But when she runs at like 1200rpms the mechanical oil pressure gauge is pegged at 100. Once she warms up and is idling at 700ish its at about 70-75 but as soon as I tap the gas its pegged back at 100 :angry7:. My uncle (who i bought the car from) changed some springs or something (nooo idea) in the oil pump making it either high volume or high pressure I cant remember. But still this cant be right can it? Will I be blowing seals?
