Moper never had oiling thru the push rods-the car had spray bars never needed to oil thru push rods or block cause the spray bars do it all, its when he went to "stock oiling all this happened, the lifter bores are bushed hence "no"oil gets into the lifter and up thru the push rods-spray bars eliminate the nedd for any other oiling-steve

Ain't read the posts yet but I'd get 2 sets of main bearings & use the upper halves so you have full grooved main bearings or I'm sure there are full groove sets of mains somewhere. I ain't tellin you anything you dont already know but either the passages are inadequate or the psi is too low or too much vol is being used where it shouldn't be or a combo of one or all three. Post how it turns out.
 
I am Robert - waiting right now on the block to get surface milled and bored.
 
In post #89 with the image of the head, did anyone else notice the color of the head? I've never seen an aluminum head this color. How hot has this engine been?
 
Rapid Robert-it is getting full groove H Bearings-when re assembled-going with BPE stroke kit. -steve
