RE: What was the actual oiling system failure?
By Glenn - 12/13/2003 6:37:59 PM; IP 12.251.42.104
Hi Dave,
The failure occoured when an oil gallery plug inside the engine blew out on initial startup. I have pulled all the pressed in plugs and am going to thread them for pipe plugs. Quarter inch pipe plugs OK or do I need to look at somthing more exotic? The only other oil mod I have done is plug the oil feed into the rocker shafts with allen screws and .070 drilled orfices. Many thanks.
Glenn
