Looks like on the cam bearing, the upper portion of the bearing wasn't even touching the camshaft journal...Engine had about 5 psi at hot idle...and everyone kept telling me, "change the oil pump, that's your problem!" I knew better. Actually, the ONLY thing that I could have used WAS the oil pump, LOL. I didn't check the cam bearing clearances because my dial bore guage didn't go that small, but the rod bearings were close to 5 thousands on the clearances.[ATTACH=full]4811[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]4814[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]4812[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]4810[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]4813[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
