Refreshing the little motor that could...
My little 347 is at the machine shop..started idling at 18lbs oil pressure..with this stock crank,bone stock 243 heads with ls6 intake and throttle body has been living a rough life for over 3 years.2 1/2 years over 900rwhp.lets hope this new setup can take a beating..

assuming stock idle of 550rpm, 18psi hot is normal w/ 5w30.
I doubt your bearings were coming apart due to this oil pressure...probably normal wear considering the use.
900whp on stock engine...gotta love these motors!

Looking forward to the results. What was your best pass on this combo?
What pistons and rings were you using?
