Re: nope, the old oil pump which has 19k mi on it...I have a couple others i could throw in
Might be worth investing in a new oil pump or a high volume unit. The pumps in those cars are not the heartiest of units to begin with. Did you hot tank the block before rebuilding it? Wondered if something is stuck in one of the gally ways

A couple comments....
You might check the ETKA, the 225 pump might be a possibility. Hot tanking is a decent idea when rebuilding, it tends to get all the debris out of there(read: $ well spent).
I'm rebuilding a motor now, and I always hot tank the blocks/case halves/cam housings, etc. They cost a bit , but I always replace the oil pumps whenever possible or upgrade when I can.
Its worth replacing the switch as well, they are not bullit proof. They don't cost much either.
