RE: top end oil restrictors for Edelbrock heads
By Geoff McNew - 10/17/2003 4:42:55 PM; IP 66.52.140.33
O.K., spoke with a couple nice fellas at Edelbrock, and told them it would be really neat if they machined their heads with the ability to take a Holley jet to limit oil to the rocker stand. However, they seem to think their "current" redesigned FE head is tits now, and doesn't need larger drain holes or oil restrictors to the shafts.

Luckily, I find that Gessford offers (2) sizes of drop-in tube inserts to restrict flow...so, you can buy something else instead of a lathe:
