1992 Chevrolet Cavalier 3.1 L Engine Oil Pressure

I have replaced all the oil gaskets (valve cover, oil pan, timing cover, distbutor shaft, intake) and the timing chain and gears on this motor (motor has 142K).  I'm having a problems with the oil pressure.  When I start the car, oil pressure is above half on the gauge (no numbers on gauge), after the engine gets to operating temperature the oil pressure drops to nothing.  I have torn it apart a couple of times and can't figure out whats wrong.  I'm looking for suggestions or ideas.

Thanks

Rik
