Hey folks,

Well, after my trip to Bristol, and 220 mile trip home with only 25 psi reading on my oil pressure gauge, I finally reinstalled my old pressure gauge and fired it up.

No problems at all - 60 psi (cold) right off the bat. Just as I thought, the electrical gauge (probably sender, Autometer ProComp) crapped out, but the motor's fine. This gauge worked for about 6-8 hours of engine run time and then dumped.

Whew...

Lou
