I too have an '88 B250. That little 318 could have a stuck lifter. Drain a quart and replace it with ATF. Drive it around a few days and then do a quality oil change with a new filter. MIne sounded horrible, that cured it.
Good wrenching.

I just got home from my camping trip and every time I looked at the oil pressure gauge it was in the same (high but not too high) )spot, maybe a touch higher when cruising versus idling which is what I would expect. I think I had a bad filter like wedgy and wrxcsixeight suggested. I'm going to do an oil change as its done about 2/3k on this stuff after a period of no use before I bought it, and put on another AC DELCO filter non and hopefully this issue is resolved.

I do run M1 in both my vans with Car Quest 2 qt filters .
