Requested oiling mod info

The oil doesn't come from the bottom, it comes from the right gallery, the main feed goes down to the main. That 1 main feed has to supply the main, rods, cam journal, AND the top end whenever the feed holes are aligned. Every time the journal is in the flow position it bleeds the established pressure at the "V" above the main in pulses.


The cam and rocker gear are always taking oil from the mains on these engines.

Now, if you are saying to do the crossover so you can block the feed to the drivers side gallery and still feed the lifters/rockers then yes, you can do that.

That’s not the same thing as claiming it slows the velocity of the oil down so it can make the turn into the main feeds and stuff like that. That’s not true.

And even if you do the crossover, you are still pulling oil of the main feed to the main bearings. You just shortened the routing.
