here's a couple of thoughts and not sure if I am on the right path or not. Since the head was rebuilt was the head bolts the one with hole in it I am not sure of the application but if it does not have oil line behined the side cover those are the ones to use. Again since the head was rebuilt was correct rockers used? I know they changed the rockers oil passage I think in 58. Are the oil lines sealed and not picked up any air like losing the prime. Anyone please correct me if i am wrong about those ideas. Lastly if all the oil passages are clean and everything lined up was the correct level in the pan or was the dip stick the correct one. Thats all I can think of.
