RE: 428 Oil Pressure Problem

Perhaps 7 qts. isn't enough oil. Do you have room for more, like maybe 10 qts? Upon acceleration you would see an oil pressure drop on the guage, worse case it would go to zero. I had the same problem with my 67 Fairlane/427, cured the oil press. problem with a deep sump 10 qt, windage tray and baffles. If your crank needs to be turned again .040" bearings are available. As to the rings lining up, thats common as the rings can "travel". Unless you are running excessive spring pressure the cam should be ok to reuse but replace the lifters for use in new block.
This thread, so far...
