Mark thats great, but look at the bright side yours is the only one out of NBS that actually works. LOL

edit.

gauge that is..

@Rocket Man want pump are you running?

Melting standard volume/ pressure.

Melting standard volume/ pressure.

that is interesting because mine is hi pressure hi volume (MEL-10355)

Yours is NNBS though, isn’t it? The NBS are recommended to use the standard pump unless there’s excessive engine wear. NBS generally run higher pressure at idle than NNBS. Mine was 40 at idle stock before the cam, roller rockers, supercharger, oil pump, etc.

Don't feel bad, my oil pressure doesn't work either. Since my cluster was rebuilt awhile ago with the improved stepper motors, I'm hoping it's just the sender.

Looking good! Yeah, sender was replaced recently, first non-ac-Delco, then 2-3 months later, with a Delco part lol. So really hoping it’s the stepper motor now.

God I need an aftermarket cluster

my oil pressure is like on ****** #mellingviagra and that is on idle.

It's a stock Esky cluster.

It's a stock Esky cluster.

Still better than the ugly stock one

Driving the Hoe today, it started running like shit, almost like it's missing--while in gear. Revved it in neutral and it sounded a little better. No codes, all plug wires look ok. I did put gas in yesterday and I'm wondering if I got some bad gas. BTW--still getting the reduced engine power, so cleaning the grounds and adding a new one didn't help.
