Break in pressure was @12-15 @ 2,000 rpm
Gauge is mechanical
I will inspect the pressure valve between the filter and block

(IIRC -some(all?) SBC blocks have a 2nd oil tap part way down the drivers side toward the oil filter.)
Could you describe in more detail? Maybe a picture?

This is an internal tap right? I have zero external leaks.

Don't know if I can drop the pan w/o pulling the motor. I can give it a try...
