Shops make mistakes too though. If they've torn it down recently I'd go ask them what's going on. A little smoke on cold start is ok, other than that it shouldn't be. The stock oil pressure gauges are faulty at best. If you can acquire an aftermarket gauge that would give you a much more accurate reading. Other than that the gauge shouldn't drop that low unless there's an oil leak. The shop who built it should fix the leak too if that's the case
