We were running about 2500 rpms and I dropped all oil pressure and it appears that the dipstick possibly came loose and all the oil blew out of the motor. What couldve caused this? Havent been able to find any other place it wouldve came from.

Try a compression test first, a hole in a piston would do that.

thanks for the reply but we figured it out. one the hose clamps right above the oil filter vibrated enough and rubbed a hole in the filter. Live and learn.
