    Dunno Tyler...we took the oil pump out and it was stuck open..the pan was clean as could be..We have done 2 cam swaps etc..so it was probably a piece of dirt or something that finally made its way to the pump....Its all running good now.

    The pumps on these things, I don't know why but they just aren't as dependable as the old gear drives. Maybe its because of the aluminum casting vs cast iron housing.

    From what I have seen around here mine was the 3rd in about 1.5 months for this to happen to (all 3 names I mentioned above in my thanks).

    I'm just thankful that it wasn't worse.
