    Oil Pressure

    I do remember reading about a special race engine that needed the oil and coolant to be pre heated before start up they said if it was started with cold fluids it would cause engine damage very interesting.

    Oil Pressure

    Cold oil is thicker then hot oil once the oil is up to operating temperature the pressure will be a bit less this is normal for any engine. Old engine builder rule is you want 10 psi per 1000rpm for so yours is good for around 5000rpm sounds good to me.

    Battery: What are you using and why.

    I had the same thing with an Optima yellow top went to tighten the positive terminal clamp and the post came out of the battery I think they went bad when they started making them in Mexico. Had a US made red top lasted over 10 years and wasn't even well looked after.

    Next project... Wheel bearings went out, spindles are apparently harder to find than I thought. Options?

    That blue looks like a rust proof coating if it was blue from heat definitely wouldn't come off easy. There's no blue where the bearing sits which would have been ground zero for the heat. If the bearing is a little loose on there you can stake it a few times with a centre punch to reduce...

    Hand cranking the engine

    If you removed the transmission there could be a bolt or tool accident left in the bell housing area that jammed against the torque converter then when you rotated it the other way it move out the way, crazier things have happened.
