Is it kicking off/on on a incline? If it's not first thing check all connections and reseat them. Next look at your oil pan and see if it's dented in or not. If it is pull it off and check out your oil pick up tube, if that's all banged up I woul seriously recommend spending the $40 to buy a new one and scouting out for a new pan at a local junk yard. That should solve your problem.

If worse comes to worse and it's none of the above hook up and mechanical oil pressure gauge and see what kind of pressure your getting what your driving around and get back to us

before u start buyin **** for ur car try the little **** first...more than likelythe screen in ur vtec solenoid is clogged....remove the 3 10mm bolts...and clean out ur screen....i usually just shoot it with brake cleaner...it has worked fine for me so far....but yeah make sure all the connections are on tight....also i believe b series motors take 4.2 quarts...but dont fill it up just based on that number....put 4 in and then add some slowly until it comes up to the mark...
