Thanks for the reply Scott, that actually was helpful.
Yes however, I'm just curious if anyone is using a gasket for the oil pump. What kind of results are they getting? Higher oil pressure? Or whatever?.
When I first bought the car the oil pressure indicator gauge was in the center, I rebuilt the engine several years ago and the oil pressure gauge never return back to the center it's always showing low. I put a mechanical oil pressure and it is showing about 20 psi at idle and 35 PSI all out. Reading several post here, I'm understanding that his normal. But I'm curious if anyone is using a gasket to attach the oil pump to the block and what kind of result are they getting, better oil pressure? Or what? Again thanks everyone.
