So I've been dealing with an oil pressure issue with my truck since I've bought it and decided it's time to stop messing around and fix the POS.
Basically, once the oil temp gets warm enough the oil pressure starts dropping, and then the valve train starts getting very noisy. On a hot day, I can haul my car to the track about an hour away and by the time I get there the truck is getting loud, and when I leave about the time I pull in the driveway she starts clattering. But if you shut it down and let it rest for 5-10 minutes you can restart it and it's good to go until the oil temp climbs again. It happened on a parts run last week and while it hasn't been a problem yet - I want to get it resolved.
So here are a couple of pictures of the tear-down.
