Default No oil Pressure!!!!

I just had new lifters and pushrods put in. Once I drove it back from the shop, the pressure started to drop and then hit zero. Besides the oil pump going out on me... what else could it be? No leaking oil and the oil level is fine. WTF!!!!

Pinched O-Ring between the pick up tube and oil pump maybe?

broken oil sening unit that the shop most likely broke when they took the intake off and didn't disconnect the brake booster vacuum line, it'll snap it everytime. plus if you pressure was actually 0, trust me you would feel it. it will snap it and work when they stick the intake back on and it pushes it back together but it will vibrate off and lose the connection eventually, check the switch is what i say...

I wish it was just the sensor or gauge. But the car started to sound like a dissel. I could tell something internally was not getting lubricated. But I am going to tear into it tonight.
