 Ok, I just got off the phone w/ a really pleasant fellow who does restoration work (B&A in San Marcos, CA).  i told him I thought the oil pump was ok.

So, when he heard the oil pressure had dropped thru the floor - he thought that it might be the main bearings.  He believes that even if the oil pump was shot - the pressure would only drop 10 psi or so - not all the way down TO 10psi or less.

Damn, I don't want to tear this engine all the way apart!  I was just looking to see if he could help me get some of the stuff back together since I'm traveling so damn much on business in the next 2 months.
