Runs great, great oil pressure and very happy with the engine. Now that being said itonly has a 6 month warrenty but if something is wrong with a SBC its going to happen at break in. I would look around unless you want to keep it numbers matching find a good engine rebuilder or this guy might ship you one.
You never want to use a high volume pump on a sbc only high pressure pumps. Reason being a sbc already has a great oiling system and with a high volume pump you will suck the pan dry since it takes a lot longer for the oil to come back down in the pan.
