It had an h22 in it an that's the motor that screwed up so I took that oil pump of my h22 an put it on the h23 where it would hve a crank angle sensor

Yes I'm sure it the the oil pump cuz the oil light is on an oil pressure gauge isn't gonna help if there isn't any oil pressure in the first place they checked the pressur reliev valve an it was workin right so what could be the problem

well if the bearings was not within spec and you didnt plasti gauge it will cause no oil pressure sounds like you didn't know what you was doing on the rebuild, leave it to the pros
