215 v8, original oil pump/front housing with newer gears and wear plate. 
Just started it up after a 6 mo rest. No oil pressure. After running 30 
sec-1 minute, no oil pressure. What is the normal solution here? I am 
guessing a new front housing and new gears. It has always had low oil 
pressure (summer with 90 deg ambient at idle about 18psi! and this is 
with 15w50 M1 oil!) This is on a '62 skylark.
