Correct....ive driven corners pretty hard and it still hasnt fell over....so it works for me for now lol..
haha what do you think
it has 2 meanings to it...im sure you can figure it out...
im well hung....and so is my exhaust
haha hell ya...i love hotboxing cars.. to much fun
lol i painted the interior when i first got the car 5 years ago...when i was 15 and a ricer lol...i plan to repaint them black at sometime....
well something f**ked up on my car.....im getting real low oil pressure....like 5psi @ idle....40psi @ 7k.....
i changed the oil to rotella t 15w40 with a quart of lucas to thicken it up more....and still no luck ....and i know its not the oil pump cause i just bought a brand new oem one when i rebuilt it...and that was 1600 miles ago.....
no knocking though ....so im taking it to my builder for him to check the bearings....and replace them if needed...
also i ordered a new distributor and a Toga HV oil pump for him to install ......this way hopefully i can get my CEL to go away with the new distro cause the one i have is messed up on the inside...and then the new toga oil pump should raise the oil pressure ....so hopefully i wont have to worry about this again....
got the distributor today...
ill get pics of the toga oil pump once it arrives...

Why do you need both a mechanical and an electronic?
because i can.... why not
i didnt remove the stock sending unit...i still have it hooked up along with the oil pressure gauges....
but your right....i disconnected the sending unit b4 and the light didnt come on....
haha yep...i have a electrical one....but i wasnt sure if it was working properly so i bought a mechanical one and hooked it up as well....might as well have 2 of them...that way if one goes out or messes up ill know....wait. u have two aftermarket oil pressure gauges?
yep
last time i drove the car they were both reading low....so i havent drove the car in awhile....im waiting til my builder takes off the pan and girdle and checks the bearings to see if they are toasted....it doesnt have a rod knock....just low oil pressure....like 40-50psi at 7k...
How would you know which one messes up hahah
its like a carnival with all the gauges! been a while since a looked at this build. still lookin good 
well if one starts reading low or high i would think that its that one that is messed up....
haha thanks !!its like a carnival with all the gauges! been a while since a looked at this build. still lookin good
