I hope thats all it is. My thoughts are the o-ring we used came right out of a LS oil pump so why would it be too small? All the LS motors have the same size bore in the oil pump only the pickups are different hence the red o-rings for the pickups with the groove and the blue ones for the pickups without. It should have been the right o-ring? Anyway not doubting anybody but I just hope they don't button it all back up and still no oil pressure because the pump is bad. I guess we will see once it goes back together.

Edit: I have the utmost confidence in Jaime's abilitys and nunchuck skills.
