Not sure what to think about all this but it's still seems to be an oiling issue. I felt like I had looked at everything, Al Nyhus who has been a great help to me, pushed for me to take a closer look at the plug under the main cap. From the top and also looking from the side above the filter boss I could clearly see the plug was in far, (the bright spot in the picture from the side) blocking maybe 10- 20% of the passage leaving the filter. Is this part of the problem? I don't know, but it could be. Also ya'll do weird stuff with the oil pump I guess, well I don't know if its right wrong or indifferent. It ran with this "doctored" pump so it should be fine but I don't know crap about it, I'm going to take it out and replace it just to try something.
