Well I was ------- sweating bullets this morning....finally got all my charge pipes painted, everything was set to start this thing. So I unplug the EFI fuse and start to crank the motor to prime the turbo. Well I got a battery charger on this thing, and I crank for almost a minute, and can't get any oil pressure. I check the dipstick again, plenty of oil. So I tried cranking it a few more times, still no oil in the return line. Hrrrm, I pulled off the oil filter, and cranked. No ------- oil pressure. What the ---- is wrong with this motor, I was short on time, and had to run to class. While I'm in class, I'm stressing cause this is supposed to be my new DD. Anyways, when I come home I say ---- it I'm going to run it with fuel and see if I can't get the oil pressure to come up. It fired right up and boom! I have never been so happy to see oil dumping out the return!! She runs alright, but still needs to be timed. I'll get a video and a dyno plot when I baseline it! Enjoy some new pictures..check out the HMT hood strapz
