I just finished installing my cam and I was priming the oil pump with my homemade primer and when I went to take it out, the shaft came up a little bit.
I got it back in its place, but is it ok? I did get it to fire but my oil pressure gauge isnt working because I'm rewiring back to stock gauges so I just shut it off.
I plan on getting a gauge tomorrow.
