  • After all that work last week, I came across a MAJOR problem on this Gen 6 454 big block chevy in my 1976 C30 Dually Crewcab.
    Watch as I encounter a huge problem with this big block Chevy engine! If you're into Chevy square bodies or dealing with oiling issues, this video is a must-watch.

    Also i like napa oil filters. Most of napas oil filters are psi rated correctly.

    There’s a plug on the side of the block just above where the oil filter screws into. If you remove that plug, you can test the oil pressure from there. If you have good oil pressure, then oil will go from there up to the cam bearings and oil ports. Lacking oil at the rockers would be in this area, bad cam bearings, plugged or partially plugged ports.

      Ive tested the oil filter threaded port and the stock oil pressure port by the distributor and both have excellent pressure 60psi+ when spun with the drill. I'm going to remove pan nd timing cover to check for missing galley plugs

    Maybe re add the oil cooler because the pass thru may go to the rocker passages.

      @@JovaniDanteGriegoI found a post saying maybe you need a better primer tool. They said a drill doesn't spin fast enough to prime all the passages to feel that 60 psi. The post I saw said the primer tool needs to seal at the correct points to prime to the heads. I haven't worked on anything older than an 80's blazer. Sorry lil sir.
