We've made & fitted the double oil jet conversion to both our single seaters. Out of curiosity I aligned the oil jets with wire before using the pumping paraffin trick. It was interesting to see the actual direction of the oil jet stream & all 4 oil jets required further tweaking for optimal oiling. As per Mike Forrest's advice bending them inwards changed the oil feed duration from around 30* to around 80* of crank rotation. 80x2 = 160* oil feed. Better then the original.
The Phoenix oil pockets were alarmingly small & I opened them up and radiused the holes. This was a picture part way through the process. This was the most difficult thing to do as the crank was hard.
1.32nd over bore on the oil pump, 1 gallon sump & notched the extension to ensure good flow.
