Lovely article Terry, thanks for sharing. I have bored out 1/4 bsp fittings to 5/16 ID and will look at adapters for the larger hose.
We have a 3 bearing crankcase which has the plain centre camshaft bush, The original oil feed has been lost with the removal of the centre bearing so we propose to feed it from a tapping at the rear jet plug and a capillary tube going around the back of the block and in through the bush locater bolt. The gallery will have pressure if we will leave out the internal gallery blanking plug at the front .
In view of the quantity of oil flying about do you think that feeding the bush is necessary?
I have printed your article for my reference file , always worth reading. Regards Russell
