Sounds like you need more oil in the pan! It's sloshing over to the side,
and probably up the pushrod tubes, flooding the rockers. And/or add pushrod tube
baffles to reduce this effect. Even though you're running a deep pan, you
can still run the oil level up to the stock level. I would guess that alone
will solve your problem.

What would be the most likely cause of the temp/press light to come on
during hard left turns. Fist time this has ever happened, and only in hard left
turns, twice. Not sure if would happen when turning right as I made no hard
right turns. Appears to be oil pressure, not temp obviously, car was running
great. Run about 1/2 quart low, and have an Offy deep pan, with 1 extra qt
capacity. Checked oil level and is about where it normally is. Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
