i got a running 350 and deciding to do a gasket rebuild, threw it in my other cam, new oil pump etc, but kept the valve train cause(good cam,mech rollers,etc) it was nice, only needed to be cleaned up a lot! i was planning on getting this motor running which it does, and drive it everyday and build the motor i really want overtime in my garage. only problem is it runs fine but there is no oil to the rockers, hooked up a new mech guage and i got 60 psi, any ideas? going outside to take push rods out and clean them, but not all 16 would be clogged. anyone have ne ideas?

 

How long did you let it run before shutting it off?
It could take as long as a minute before oil reaches the rockers on a fresh build. I was getting worried on 1 of my builds due to that.

 

3-5 minutes or so, then trying to diagnose it poured a half qt over them so they wouldn't be dry gave them another min.I turned it off after that cause i didn't want them to burn up
