Reply to "351C lubrication system & lubricants"

Great input guys

Auwch... when I read about all of these tolerances, I start to feel bad, and like pulling the engine, just to check whether everything is put together the correct way...

Mine got rebuild once, but now after reading all of the above, I worry...

quote:

As is the case with most OHV V8s, oil is routed to the 351C valve train via the lifters and push rods. With a Cleveland the flow of oil to the valve train must be limited because everything sent to the valve train impacts the pressure of the oil supply for the reciprocating assembly.

Valve covers with spray bars are to be avoid then I guess, unless for racing and in combination with a properly modified lubrication system?
