LS1 low oil pressure damage?
I am working on my install, and got the motor fired up. All the gauges were working except the oil pressure. Havent run the car long due to no tune and no O2 sensors to tune it with. Well today the motor ran for a bit and warmed up some more and now I could hear a clatter coming from the valve train.
Shut it down immediately. So now im thinking the gauge is reading and I have an oil pump issue. Checked the oil and don't see any metal.
I am concerned about internals now.
Gonna check the oil pick up and swap the oil pump tomorrow.
Any Ideas?
