    When your engine machinist pressure tested the block and head, did they pressure test the water passages like normal, or did they actually plug all the oil holes and pressure up the oil galleys?

    yes, new oil pump, even stretch the spring in one pump and it raised the pressure for just a few minutes and then dropped. The machinist plugged everything and pressured up the oil galleys in the head without the camshaft installed. I thought that they may have blocked the pressure off by doing that because the oil does travel throught the camshaft, right ? I'm off work tomorrow so I guess I'll check and recheck everything again, see if there something I've missed.
