Got it. Let's assume that there is nothing wrong with your engine. If that's true then bolting on an old stock
oil filter adapter with a fresh filter to your block (and thus temporarily bypassing all of that pretty plumbing) will bring your numbers significantly up. I think the likelihood of your engine "going South" while you were putting on the body and doing the rest of the build is remote. I'm betting the problem is in your external plumbing -- you just can't see it from the outside. Putting a stock
oil filter adapter and fresh filter on is a quick test that will tell you for sure.
