Well it looks bad I drove the car last night to the shop which is about 40miles away from my house it drove great with little engine vibration from 1500-3000rpm when I reached the shop the oil press dropped to 18-20psi at idel even though the temp never went above 190F
(oil press was 30-35psi hot before) and then
slight knock noise in the engine not at idel only from 2000-3500rpm we still dont know the problem but it looks like my 5 years engine is dying ![Bomb](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_bomb.gif)
We'll tear down the engine in the next couple of weeks to check
I'm already looking to build a new short block 346-390ci I Dont want to go 400+ci since I dont have any plans to go with bigger turbo for now![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)

I run MSD wires and hate them, half the time my car has a miss after I change plugs. They are a pain in the *** to get clicked on correctly and I always use diletric grease. Pick up some firecore wires and let it rip. You may also want to check the weather station on the dyno, they can take a dump at random times and skew numbers.
GL OP. sry, had to show my hate for MSD wires....
