Killed another engine

So after the first motor went, you replaced the oil cooler, lines and filter head?

I have run a scraper on one motor, I might had better install it on my current “low oil pressure STP special” motor currently installed.

Same oil cooler. It was the only thing shared between the motors. And yes, it is working, and it was completely disassembled and cleaned; lines, cooler itself, and the head. It was free of any debris. The oil was still clean with great pressure after the 7th session of the weekend. All this happened during the 8th session.

Gauges and senders working correctly?

Yes. If there was not metal in the oil, I would be skeptical

My motor gobbled up some rod bearings so I got different bottom end and put a crank scraper in. It’s been good so far since I installed the crank scraper before nationals 2007 and this bottom end has about 275K on it!
