Oil pump went out CARNAGE!!!
Well im led to believe my oil pump went out on me.... wasnt getting any oil pressure to the head noticed it b/c i heard a squeaking noise i thought it was belt tensioner at first but it was the cams grinding away at the cam caps 
head was fully built minus a port and polish and stock gsr cams... Im gonna have to replace the head and just put all my internals in it.... Hopefully they can use my bronze valve guides out of my head in my new one....
tore the block apart and some of the trash from the head was in bearings crank looks ok and so do the rods... I will post pictures tommorrow... The number 1 piston had some scarring on it Im going to replace that piston and hone the cylinders to clean it up... I cant feel any scarring with my finger so hopefully i can stay 83mm bore!
I will post Pictures Tomorrow!
Gonna get a new set of bearings, 1 piston, hone the block and a new oil pump to get the bottem end back together... then find me a b16 head and put my stuff in it along with some gsr cams.... Gonna have 1 more whack at it if something bad happens again i give up.... I will keep yall updated

So...you just don't have an oil pressure gauge? That's even worse than not having a boost gauge! In every case I've known a turbocharged car w/o a oil or boost gauge (one or none), something went to **** because of it. Only 1 didn't, because a coupler blew off when the boost spiked due to a WG hose crack.
If your engine ran w/o oil to the extent it wore the head, chances are every bearing surface is junk. That includes the crank and the other 3 pistons' skirts. Even if the journals look good, the thrust bearing area is probably bad.

Re: Oil pump went out CARNAGE!!!
suprisingly from what i can tell the crank is fine! and only 1 bearing was really messed up.... i think i may have lucked out as far as that goes... and i did have a electronic oil pressure guage but the sending unit went out about 4 days prior to this so i bought a mechanical but hadnt put it on yet
