the pressure rises. im thinking maybe spun or cracked cam bearing? not allowing the oil to come up to the top.

How do you know it's not coming up to the top? Are your lifter's not pumped up at all? Are you not geting oil to your heads, valley area, both? I would doubt you spun all your cam bearings IMO..

Speaking of crack, this is the last chance I'm going to give you before I make a special trip to visit you about my brake calipers you've had since March! I'm not the only one that you seem to not want to follow through with your deals.
