Just a thought , Was woundering why would you lose oil pressure even at 1 time down to 0 as the motor got about 150  160 deg's or actuly lower

My first pinto had loose cam bearings. When it was cold the pressure was fine. As it warmed up the pressure dropped. Hot off the track the pressure at idle was 0 lbs. It took forever to find the problem.
