I think a Autolite 104 would be a good choice for a spark plug.

What oil pump and pickup are you using? What oil pan? Did you make sure the pickup was the proper depth in the pan? Did you tack the pickup to the pump?

This probably should have just been put in LT1 Tech. Moving it there.

I have a high pressure oil pump, std pick up, and stock pan. and yes it is welded, it is 3/8" higher than the bottom of the pan.
