Well I have narrowed my oil pressure problem to the oil pump. I dropped the oil pan tonight and plan on removing the pump tomorrow. I have already dissconected the oil line in the head. Any tips on removing it would be appreciated. its a 216 in a 1953 3800 (1 Ton)

Just follow the manual if you have one. Loosen the lock nut then back out the lock bolt(pin). You might have to tap on the pump body to loosen it.You should remove the distributor first.

Ahhh I see the problem. I removed the lock nut and bolt but did not remove the distributor. I will go remove the distributor and give it a tap with my rubber mallet.
thanks Drew
