I'm looking for some advice and help. I've come to star my enginefor the first time with the car in my possession and I don't get any oil pressure when cranking, I've also removed the pressure tapping on the crank case and don't get any flow.
The the is on 12v with a 6v starter so cranks quite quickly.
I've had the sump off and all looks OK, pump drive etc.
Would I expect oil pressure or flow at cranking?
I've not yet inspected the pressure relief valve, are these known to stick open?

It's an early coil engine 

Any suggestions / advice? 

Thanks Neil
