Oil pan banged outword? Replaced oil pump and no pressure? Do you have a catch-can. Have you replaced PCV valve - well, that wouldn't really help at all.

*bump then* - cause I am stumped...

there are some minor seals around the head area that should be replaced, such as the oil restrictor between the head and block,

how do you know that there is no oil pressure?

have you measured it with a gauge?

the block was check with a oil pressure guage and after replacing oil pump and switch it went to 3 psi.... well the block was taken apart everything checked and fine but nothing pin pointed im hoping its a clogged oil squirter because the block has good flow and nothing is clogged in the oil galleries
