I am open to all suggestions. the only thing I have seen here and other forums is to replace the pump.
I asked if he would send me a new pump (at my cost) and if the new pump fixes the problem will he warranty the faulty pump. Is that not the way i should handle it?
If both pumps have issues then I have an extra pump here with very few miles that can be used later on something else.

Could it be the O-ring? I guess but thought if that was not seated properly it would not build pressure from the get go.

Do I need a different pump than a stock one? LPE posted on LS1tech that hot oil pressure loss might need more volume.

Listening to all ideas and suggestions, not ruling anything out. Worst case is the bearings are trashed and needs to be pulled. that would suk but I knew that buying a junk yard mileage unknown motor. it happens.

All ears!!
