interesting update from shop... when they started the motor, there was insufficient oil pressure to the engine and they shut it down within 30 seconds because it wasn't getting enough... they think the new oil cooler system has an issue with delivery/pressure, which would explain a lot!! in any event, first thing tomorrow they are going to run some bypass tests and troubleshoot and I'll have more to report later

on the topic of fuel starv... they are also going to get rid of the two secondary pumps in my fuel tank - they've convinced me this is a potential safety issue b/c when the pumps are no longer wetted they get extremely hot... he put more foam in to help control slosh, and he's going to make a secondary hose going to driver's side from which the primary (passenger side) pump will pick up to help control fuel starv

unrelated note, here's my new garage with high lift kit!
