ok got the car running.. fuel pressure issue.. there was a cut in the rubber line to the walbro pump, put a new rubber line on and its up to 40 psi.
replaced oil pressure sending unit, motor reading 65 psi. runs like a top now. thanks for the help.. now all i have to do is get this sjm line lock and abs delete hooked up. flaring lines is such a pita! especially when the tip of the die breaks.

one new thing however... the fuel gauge is pegged above full. it was working after i put the fuel sending unit in the car though. checked the ground beside the drivers seat and its good. any ideas?
