How does a bad pan gasket cause no oil pressure?
thats what i want to know^^^
See the 2 holes bottom right... those have to seal up with block, depending on the year.
No comment... we will find out very soon how much one can hold

Oil filter is in the pan. So oil pressure goues from the pump on the front of the motor through the block then through one of those little holes in the gasket into the side of the pan. There it either goes through the filter or through a bypass then back up through the other little hole. If that part of the gasket is missing oil will just escape through there back into the pan.

They are NOT cheap. But your engine WILL be done right.
They even have in house engine dyno.
Built my 351W for my stang for me. Threw it on the engine dyno
broke it in and knew it was making exactly 476hp.

If you aint breaking - you aint going fast enough
The seals that seal the main gallery to and from the oil filter are missing from the gasket.
The confusing part is the picture has the gaskets upside down. Hold your computers up to a mirror.
You crack me up sometimes Nathan

The difference between winning and losing, is having a 2nd stage.
I wasn't aware of that little tidbit. Thanks for the explanation.
