Yes RJP, that is why my 427 side oiler is obviously drilled at the factory to match the bearing hole.

I believe the bearing saddle should be opened up to match the hole in the bearing and oil flow around the bearing controlled by the bearing clearance. There should be no restriction down stream of the bearing.

SInce the bearing is cooled only by this oil flow then the clearence must be higher it you routinely rev to high RPMs.
This thread, so far...
