Guys----After having the engine rebuilt I've noticed that it takes about 3-4 seconds for my oil pressure to come up after the car starts. I used to use a wix filter on my remote PTE oil filter system, but the engine builder installed an AC Delco--not sure of the number..... The pressure is 29-35 hot idle and 55-65 cold idle and 65+ at WOT. I have noticed that on oil/filter changes the filter getting removed is only approx. half full....What gives with that? The filter is upright! It shouldn't drain back right? Any ideas?

Also----What is the correct WIX number for the biggie filter?
