You need to post this in the internal engine section, if you haven't already.

i figured it out.. the gasket on the oil filter was never on right.. i mean the filter felt tight but it was never on right....got a new filter and case of oil last night started right up and had pressure and nice idle... got a nice exhaust leak on a flange on the y pipe but thats nothing. cant wait to tune this weekend

Cool. I was about to say check the gasket, but you figured it out. The same thing happened on a friend's truck.
