Hey guys- have a quick question for yall ...had that brand new long block put in the sbird but it has a small oil pressure issue now . the issue is this-once it warms up it wont hold oil pressure when its in gear(drive or reverse)if im stopped with my foot on the brake.the oil pressure gauge will drop enough to get the check gauges lite to come on the dash. now when its in park n neutral its fine. its real easy to keep the pressure up if i just 'rest' my foot on the gas when its in gear(round 800rpm's),with my foot on the brake too. im not into playing games with the super coupe when it comes to easy drivability. the shop that installed the engine said it needs a high flow oil pump-dont think so cause it didnt have one b4. i did take it back to the shop and he said the pressure never went below 10-11 psi(after the new oil pressure gauge sending unit was put in)...i dont think they checked it correctly cause the pressure just drops fast. she only has a few upgrades so none of those should do it now.any of u guys ever get this issue after an upgrade....ie underdrive pulleys? other than this it runs GREAT! if any of you are willing-can u check this out? thanks for reading this huge post!
