When to worry about engine noises?

You really think that MILLIONS of small block Chevys that idled at 15 psi had zero oil pressure at the rods and rockers? They had idiot lights for oil pressure that tripped at 7-9 lbs.
I had a 305 in an '84 C-10 that went 369,000 miles on oil pressure just like this. No engine lives that long on zero oil pressure to the rods and mains.
The crank gets the oil first anyway.

I didnt know this was a Chevy forum. Oh wait, it’s NOT. I don’t give a **** about how chevy does it on THIS forum.

And BTW, a lot of those chevy turds ate rocker balls like ****. The only guys I know running low oil pressure like that have roller rockers.

Most Chryslers do not run roller bearings on the shaft. So its not the same.

**** me running. Stay on track here.
