    So yeah, oil pump went out on my IROC, didn't realize it seeing as I didn't have a working oil pressure gauge. Got a nasty rod knock along with a valvetrain noise.

    Meh, whatever.

      Sorry dude, my advice, after you get it fixed, buy a gauge.

                ouch thats sad to hear spencer.
                If you need help rebuilding or what not you know ill help ya. i did mine after i spun a bearing last sept. it doesnt take long just tedious work you have to do and make sure everythings clean and oiled when you put it back together.


                i would suggest finding a 305 to replace it with for the time being for a couple hundred. and we can put your top end cuz if i remember right you have performance parts on your top end. oil press. senders come with most oil press. gages. you just need to get one for like 20 bux at autozone or something like that store i dunno what all ya'll got up in the lapeer neighborhood.

                ill be up next saturday at the track. then im prolly gunna go to pattys....

                  Hell yeah man, are you gonna join our poker game?

                  Anyway, I can't afford to rebuild the motor or even buy a junkyard motor right now. There's just no money left. I had an Autometer Oil PSI gauge, and it didn't show anything weird.. For now I'll drive the Audi, but thanks for the support guys. I'll let you know what happens.
