Low oil pressure?

-
I have been playing around and this is what I came up with, Using a degree wheel loose so it would spin so that 90* marks would indicate the bottom of the block crank center line. Using nm9stheham
degree's of 75* for 3.31 stroke I was able to get an Idea where the oil hole would have to be @ 55* and 75* I put 2 rods through the oil holes on #1 & 2 journals the silver is the main and the yellow color is the rod.

The right bank would have to be oiled through the cap and the left bank through the block, I not sure about drilling a hole in the main cap though.
 
We do it with X bolted hemis and aftermarket caps
putting oil in at the parting line seems to work and does not affect the bearing support
but if you are using full grove bearings you could put the oil in anywhere- the bearing groove is not big enough and the crank disturbs it as a good oil channel due to the surface tension of the moving crank
also remember NACA ducts if you want to suck up a fluid
