72 318 Scamp. Low oil pressure 1 minute after startup.

OK, I think I see that hole in earlier pix by the #8 cylinder on the block deck, at the 5 o'clock position; is that it? That is just a casting hole with casting sand & flash in it.. It is not used in actual operation. Not a problem; there are several of these in the deck on each side. No wait that does not look like the right hole LOL. A wider area shot of that hole would help us all, and telling us if it is in the pan rail or the head deck!

The crank could have been a re-man crank/bearing kit that got turned down all at one time. Bearings don't look too bad, nor does the crank.

How about some bore pix? The 1st shot shows them out of focus.... they look pretty shiney, but that is not a good pix to judge from.

And how about a pix of some of the odd rod nuts?
