R3W7 Assembly

I was never concerned with the gears getting oil. What I wS told was to bring oil to the cam thrust plate side. The outside has a needle bearing, but the other side has the thrust. I dremeled a small trough that gets oil from the drivers side oil galley plug .040 hole to the trough and directed by the trough to the cam thrust surface.
I think there will be plenty of gear oil from the #1 main leakage and the sloshing of oil from the lifter galley area on deceleration and the front cam bearing leakage.


Are you talking about getting oil to the cam between the cam and the plate?
