RE: 390/410 oiling questions |

Paul,
I run the Edelbrock heads and the Erson rocker setup. I dropped a 1" piece of brake line, 3/16" OD x 3/32" ID in each my oil holes. I still get lots of oiling up top and I can later remove the restrictors if I want. As for oil pumps, I used the pump that came with my master rebuild kit from PAW. This subject has come up quite a bit in the past with differing opinions. The consensus appears to be that a HV oil pump is a good idea of you drag race the engine or plan to run it extended periods of time at high RPM. If you do that you will certainly want a high-volume oil pan since the HV oil pump will pump the stock pan dry. I found this out at highway speeds around 2500 RPM. I installed the Canton T-style pan and have had no problems since. |
