Another no oil pressure thread!
Ok so i got pressure!
I put in the correct oil pickup o ring. Jacked the rear way the F up, and cranked. Didn't get anything for a while, then out of a bit of desperation i added another 4 quarts of oil, i figured i could always drain it if it does squat. Cranked a little more and up it rose. Came up to about 10-15 psi at crank speed with no plugs.
Next issue is getting the car to run! My battery can't crank the motor over very well with the plugs in. It has 650cca, and 800cca so idk. I also believe some of my wireing is off, since i didn't hear my fuel pump and what not. I may add individual switches for each relay just to be sure.
Lastly i am still using the jump cables as a connection, and they're getting hot. Time to get some thick cable!
Thanks alot everyone!!! I really appreciate, and couldn't have done it without, your suggestions!

The whole setup is a current hog you need good connections, mine wouldn't crank with my 750 and my cable was just barely loose. Tightened it and it cranked right up, so get that thing all wired up and your starter will thank you.
And the fuel pump only comes on for a second when you go to ignition so it probably is working. If you aren't sure press the schrader valve and have someone flip the key on if it hisses or squirts it workd
