No wonder it didn't get enough oil

Yes but it did get fairly good oil pressure when I built the engine but maybe it was loosing some of the pressure while driving. But I believe the oil pressure light has never come on while running, so who knows

Most oil lights only come on at 5psi I believe, so it could have dropped fair bit I suppose.

Re: Today’s break down
Well finally picked up my engine off Matt this afternoon after my 10 day holiday.
Thanks Matt for all your Help
Thought well I can’t leave it in the back of the motor, so attached it to the hoist
Did think if I could do a Miley Cyrus wrecking ball and swing the engine straight in the engine bay , but in the end went for the sliding down the plank of wood, ok chip board which snapped, which I new was going to happen, but as the hoist was taken the strain, I didn’t bother looking for anything better.
But of course can’t just leave it there.
So up the engine goes again
Started to get it all together
