    It died today

    Aggressor is shut down for lack off oil pressure.
    I finished the cooling sytem, loaded it with antifreeze and started her up.
    I planned on setting timing, float levels, and idle adjustments but the oil pressure zeroed-out. I checked top end down and she has resistance when primed by drill but no pressure is registering on the gauge. I'll be replacing the oil pump and pump shaft on Tuesday.

    It really sucks not test driving her this evening.

    Geary, do you have a remote oil cooler? Are you absolutely, no-questions POSITIVE that the connections there are correct? (between block and remote)- that will cause a no-oil-pressure condition.
