How about switching to oil through push rods and a hv/hp oil pump? I am running a stock replacement Milodon oil pan and I am running these lifters Comp Cams part # 867-16
How would you oil the shafts with those rockers and pushrod oiling?
I was at PRI in...I *THINK* it was 2000...could have been 2001 and I was in an interesting conversation with a (at that time) Pro Stock engine builder and a rocker arm guy.
The gist of it was they were discussing how they could NOT pushrod oil a PS engine. They were considering the weight of the oil in the pushrod and some other things. Quite an interesting discussion.
The Chrysler system will oil the pushrods fine if it's correct. I've run as high as 360 on the seat and over 900 over the nose and didn't have pushrod oiling. At that level, one small mistake and it eats parts.
There was a guy who was running AA/GS who was using a Donovan. I can't think of his name. He was tall...like 6'7" and weighed about 185. He had to fold up like a paper clip to get into the car. He made is own rockers and shafts. He was the one who helped me get the oiling issues correct. There is more to it. When you get up over 300 on the seat it becomes more critical.
