    What is the TPI of a 440 Oil Pickup?

    Well, its used for systems with low or no pressure.

    383 low oil pressure

    Here is a video I took after I drove it around for about 10min. Car also drives fine and smooth and no white smoke. Here is the oil pressure at cold start up.

    1971 charger 383 no oil pressure fresh rebuild

    Hey all trying to figure this issue out before I tear the motor back apart I'm getting oil out of the gauge port port but not enough to read any pressure. I'm using lucas sae30 break in oil with zddp not sure if that oil is too thick? I checked the oil pump and it seems fine. As a last...

    Lets talk about oil pump relief valve springs

    This is an interesting perspective. I have been thinking about this subject and have dealt with oil pressure lower than I'd prefer, despite a fresh rebuild with bearing clearances. I used a standard oil pump when I built the engine in 2022. I didn't like the pressure but read about changing the...

    383 low oil pressure

    So this past weekend I changed the pump for a stock volume and pressure pump and pick up tube. Cold start it goes to 40psi and hit idel it goes to 5psi. Barley registers on the factory gauge. Any ideas? Motor seems to run fine and no blue smoke from the exhaust. Bad bearing or oil galley plug?

    Best guess as to what’s going on ?

    How long have you had the car? What is “This”? Oil level has nothing to do with voltage. Your car has an aftermarket volt meter ? You likely have a choke, or choke adjustment issue. Nothing to do with oil pressure. Could be a lot of things. Mostly tune up related. Unlikely unrelated to...

    A/C clutch spins after turning ignition off???

    the 69 and earlier cars do not have a low pressure cut out switch. The compressor does have it's own "pump" and I believe that is for oiling the crank, the top end (pistons & rods) will not be lubricated unless the system is charged. Mine was a completely rebuilt unit by an experienced shop and...

    No bypass oil system

    Is it safe for the oil filter to run a no bypass oiling system with a high pressure high volume big block pump?

    New 360 build with oil leaking into coolant

    New ARP bolts for the block. Block is fresh and clean. No oil was put in until last night when I went to prime. Ran up to 80 psi quickly but was a long time to get oil to the rockers. Finally it came in as I was getting worried. That is making me think that the right bank has a hole somewhere...

    Please educate me on 727 throttle pressure. (I have no kickdown)

    Ok, I very carefully installed my wire set-up on my 727, making sure the hole on the carb lever was exactly where it should be (I took the special mopar bouchillion throttle plate to double check with.) I tested several arms (Different lengths) down on the throttle lever on the 727. I got a...

    here is a quick video of a cold start and run for a minute to show oil pressure, no smoke and hear the cam.

    383 low oil pressure

    From my experience, use a Wix filter, not Fram. From an earlier post, if a pushrod bends and a lifter pops out of its bore (highly unlikely), you would have NO oil pressure, not just low.

    Plastic found in a road runner's 383?

    Hey all, so yesterday I was tearing apart my 383 from 69. Since it lost oil pressure last year and while I was tearing it down, I found that some of the very outer edges of the cam lobes were pretty jagged but all the lifters looked in good shape and the lobes themselves looked fine as well. I...

    Refurbished rallye dash, now no fuel, temp, oil pressure gauges!!!

    1969 Superbee Rallye dash, was removed, cleaned, new gage backgrounds, painted needles. All lamps removed, contact areas cleaned, all new lamps installed. Before all this, everything worked, all 4 gages, even the fuel gage worked! Now--- only voltage gage works, the other 3 dead. All lights...

    Pulley alignment challenge

    Yea... I did. Running through a host of other minor issues like no tach, no temp and no oil pressure readings. The 5v converter is gone TU on me I think.

    Hughes Aluminium rockers

    I have found no one wants to know about warranty when it means shipping to Australia I May have found the answer when the started from cold it takes 4 to 5 seconds for the oil to start pumping out the lifters if i open up the restrictors to speed up the process my oil pressure starts to drop...

    Switch to larger oil pan?

    Leaks way too much, No that's not going to work. And if it leaks that much it's probably the rear main, because there is oil pressure there. Did you tighten the oil pan bolts?

    Lets talk about oil pump relief valve springs

    Here's a rebuild kit with both springs and everything else to rebuild a standard volume pump, kinda pricey though. I'm a fan of high volume/standard pressure pumps. If you've ever primed an engine, a high pressure pump will ask a lot of your drill. Plus no risk of snapping an intermediate shaft...

    Final stages of installing A/C system

    Isn't the ICE32 a propane derived refrigerant?.....or a combination of several flammable gases? These gases are flammable where as the original R12 and R134A are not. What are the operating pressures and expected evaporator temperature, what is the condenser pressure, what oil is used, is...

    Coolant in oil, fresh build

    How screwed am I? Should I pull the engine right away or just the head? I am certain I caught this right away, it couldn't have run more than 45 seconds with coolant in the oil but that's long enough for it to circulate and get in all my nice new bearings. Experience only here please is a flush...
