What grade oil do you run?
I had an old 202 in a VK, swapped out with a dead 3.3, after I did the swap I did an oil change. Before the change it ran sweet, put in some 20w-50 and the first drive after exiting the motorway and coming to a stop the oil pressure warning light came on at idle. I chucked in a bottle of Moreys oil stabilizer and drove it like that for another few years. Engine wasn't terribly noisy either.
