    After extensive work Saturday and Sunday, the engine was in and running, but alas, no oil pressure. After spending 3-4 hours every night this week, repacking, rebuilding, replacing, relubing, repriming, and everything else imaginable, Don finally uncovered the culprit. Tomorrow (Fri) I am taking the day off and hopefully will have the truck running and present at Robesonia. Hopefully.

    The culprit was an incorrect front cover gasket. It was allowing the oil pump to suck air instead of oil, hence the lack of pressure. We finished up at about midnight on Friday, but still needs to be buttoned up for road worthiness. Plus the exhaust still needs love. I will be on the road this week, though!
