Another thing is I had it set at #2 on the can sprocket before and I moved it to #1 not sure if that's relevent. Haha just giving as much info as I can

Also all new gaskets for just about everything

What do you mean??

Nope no new cam I didn't even remove cam/valve train was just a basic head gasket/ engine paint and cleanup/ new clutch and flywheel but I did use a die grinder to clean mating surfaces on head and block with a 3m conditioning pads I wonder if some metal may have got in the oil hole in head could that cause my problem?

I've defiantly been trying to give as much info as I possibly can. I ran out of time today to work so I'll have do more next weekend. But I will measure the oil pickup. I did rember one problem o was having when putting on the time cover on was the gaskets didn't seem to fit well when I got them on I was very careful when putting them on making sure the oil holes didn't get covered even a little bit. But would the oil holes on the timing cover being covered be causing this?

No chunks of metal in oil it just shimmered like it had some tiny flakes in it.

Alright pulled off the oil pan no damage to the pickup I did notice some metal in the oil but that might be from running it with no oil pressure? I didn't run it long I ran it for maybe 5 minutes when I first got it all done and noticed no oil getting to the top end and shut it down and I've ran it probably 3 times since and have been pouring oil on the cam and down timing chain. So what now I'm stumped maybe the oil gallery's are plugged?

Alright I'll give it a go. And how about a spun Bering what should I look for with that?

If I check it what should I be looking for?

I did bump it once when I was unloading it out of a truck but it didn't move to my knolage and was still tight

Google to the rescue. Haha but when I had the engine out I didn't see any damage? The engines not making any funny noises and runs great. Aside from no oil pressure

What does a spun Bering mean?

I used a fram cause they are cheap and I planned in changing the oil in like 500 miles with a Better quality filter but it was full of oil when I put it on.

Should I try changing the filter?

No I never messed with the pick up tube I inspected it and there was no stuff on the screen. But I never took it off and I filled the oil pump twice and made sure it was tight and the timing was all matched up. I will try cranking it with the plugs out but I had it running with the sensor out and it didn't spit a drop of oil
