1: this is a repost I could not find the original to bump it so here I go.

I just had a brand new motor put in my truck to include 347 stroker, manley rods, pistons, crank, stage 2 cams. SOMETIMES when I stop at a light or stop sign I get the oil pressure to completely drop, then i will reraise itself. It does this about 3 times in a row then it normally will not do it until I have shut the vehicle down and started it again. THe light comes on between 1-8 seconds at the stop then corrects it slef what could it be?
a. Cracked Rod(I doubt this)
b. Bad Sending Unit
c. Motor is not broke in for stop and go driving yet
Detail. I drove the truck from Edgewood to ky 842 miles before this happened at all. Then the city driving began and so did this it has gotten better over the last 2 day however i do not wanna risk it

2: How dod I find my Lightnings build date and number?
3: What mods should I do next?
