FRAM UPDATE..... Just took my 69 for a ride to sort out some bugs and feel her out. Good oil pressure, water temp, etc. Got back to the garage and changed oil. Put on a new HP2! Guess what!!!! No oil pressure! Could this be? Two in a row. One PH25 from the parts store and 1 HP2 from the speed shop! I'm pissed now, I've got no filters left! I go looking for my remote setup and the System One filter but can not find my hoses! Go figure! I pulled the distributer just to make sure the pump shaft was OK and it is. I turned it by hand with a screwdriver and oil spurted out of the block! I also pulled the valve covers to make sure that I did not spit out a lifter and I hooked up a different oil pressure gage which also showed no pressure. I'm going back tomorrow to slap on the remote, one way or the other. I'll let you know what happens because i'm sure it's the filter. ... Pi$$ed!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

My B.S. meter is off the scale. I can believe two oil filter failures, maybe, but turning the oil pump driveshaft by hand with a screwdriver and getting "oil out of the block"?
