    Is it time to replace my Oil Pump

    The oil is new, and it is a remote gauge not original. When driving it seems to work away at 20#s, The engine is not rebuilt and seems strong. I guess I will for now keep an eye on it. What would be an acceptable oil grade change to push pressure up a bit.. Thanks for the input,,, Dave

    1965 727 Trans kickdown cable

    When the gas peddle is push down should the trans linkage begin to travel back at the same time or should there be a delay before it starts to move, when I kick it down when driving it does not seem to go far enough to engage the passing gear, info would be great,, Dave (Catfish65)

    Oil flow Question.

    With the valve cover removed and the engine revving approximately 1K.. should the oil flying around or just be a slower drip and flow around the rockers, it does not throw oil out toward the inner fender. Checking to see what would be considered normal,,, Dave (Catfish-65)
