I think we missed a oil filter bypass valve. Anyone know where this little guy goes? We got a nice guage in place of the oil pressure sender, and 0 on test firing.. no spark of course...
Thanks in advance..
Oh yea, 1989 2.9L .060 over all nice Ford Blue.. get pics up later...

So no one here has a clue why we have no oil pressure?

OK.. well after checking everything over at a glance, we decided to fire it again just for kicks. Seems the pressure gauge was being tempermental. And its a "CAT" brand, not what you would call 'cheap'. Anyway, poped right up to 50psi like it should.
A question we still have is... if it was a 2.9L 177 CI I believe.. have to double check, but its been punched 60 over, how big is it now? Is there a neato little link somewhere for these sorts of things?
