A close Friend that was, until recent retirement, a tech. service manual writer was going over My pickup....and one of His questions were, "What kind of oil pressure You got?" I answered, quite low...Well, He said, "about 10 to
15 lbs. will be all You will get out of the 216ci,
on the otherhand a GMC of the same year will carry
good oil pressure, and its a 6 cylinder also...
He added, "can't say the GMC is a better engine because the 216ci will amaze You with the run forever attitude !" BB
