Re: No oil pressure, new build
Plastigauge alone will not tell you your clearances. It's more of a guideline gauge if a anything.
Use a telescoping gauge and a vernier micrometer and check your journals and the inside diameter of your bearings installed. If you have standard bearings on a 10 under crank then yes you will have these issues once the engine heats up the clearances change. Right now what's saving your butt is oil flow. But this motor is short lived and will spin a bearing down the road in the future
