Bill, if discussion with your overhauler doesn't yield any good results, give me a call and I will give you a few things to check.
Good Luck,

Default oil pressure

Is your oil cooler connected properly?
do you have a oil fiilter? does it have a by-pass valve that might
be defective?
just a couple thoughts.
Good luck
