I have had 2 oil pumps in 2 days and they have been primed along with the oil system. The first oil pumps seal shattered and the second one just stoped working and the gauge in my car said zero for my oil. I have a 00 trans am with headers and cam and I need help!

Sounds like you have build up on the output of your oil pump, cause build up of that magnitude is causing your oil pump to blow up so it's a big build up on the output side of your oil pump...

Oil pumps are gear pumps, or "positive displacement" pumps. If the oil isn't going anyplace, the pressure just keeps building up until something breaks.
Truthfully, it sounds as if you have a major blockage somewhere in the oil passages.
