Okay, someone clear this up. How the Hell does an aluminum intake (M1) with no moving parts, and thus no need for lubrication (and no oil flow for that matter), have anything to do with the oil pressure? Does this make any sense?
Skyne....ditch the TB spacer. It's a nice paper weight, nothing more. Can be great with carbs, not fuel injection. It sounds like the pressure relief spring in your oil pump has at least partially failed if nothing else shows up. Did they test that? No telling for sure without a teardown.
Detonation: Extra air in the lower manifold? How do you get extra air just hanging around in the lower manifold? It's the M1's fault? Not. If anything, the M1 would cause a slower airflow at lower rpm's. Decreased airflow means less air. Detonation solved by high octane gas, or lower temp thermostat is not caused be extra air. It is caused by a run lean condition which has many possible causes. The mixture has less fuel than is needs and as the compression heats the mixture, the fuel ignites prematurely. The idea is to reduce the engine heat, or fatten the mixture with more fuel. With carbs, a manifold might cause a run-lean condition, but a computer-controlled fuel-injected engine? If it's running lean, either you have a vacuum leak, a sensor problem, or the computer needs time to adjust. If this happened after the M1 was added, it may have been installed improperly, and you have a vacuum leak. Remember that the M1 isn't made with EPA noise requirements in mind, so, more mechanical noise will be heard when compared to the OEM beer keg intake.

Janesy,
I'm sorry I called you a dumb bitch. You see, I am gay and don't know how to talk to women. I'm the sad pathetic lowlife who has been flaming you all over these boards. I'm very depressed since Julio got deported.
In the future, just think of me STS whenever I post using James Lease, LQ, Joe.C, Super.C, Super.S, Shannen. Any day now the sheriff is coming to evict me from my trailer and I have to find a place to store all my kiddy porn. Please understand I have a serious mental disorder and I'm gay.
Thanks.

Thank you Gen1Dak..
I almost fell of my chair when I read the "extra air" theory.
Detonation is caused by one thing, which happens to be the correct name for the problem often referred to as detonation, ping, valve rattle, spark knock etc. It is simply preignition! The combustion process is completeing just before the piston reaches TDC. The sound is the combustion trying to stop the piston before it reaches the top of the compression stroke. The result is lower main bearing wear, upper rod bearing wear and piston damage. It is a result of fast burning, low octane fuels, excessive cylinder temperatures and/or to much timing advance.
But, keep in mind that the ignition process always starts before the piston reaches the top of the compression stroke. The problem only occurs when the conditions allow it to happen to fast. Lower octane fuels burn faster, high temps cause it to burn faster, and timing starts it to soon!
Sorry to anyone that had there intelligence insulted by that, but it is a good lesson to learn for those who are not aware of what it really is.
