Reply to "351C lubrication system & lubricants"

Biggest problem with drip-fingers and baffles in OEM rocker covers is, nearly all interfere with more desirable full-roller rockers. Triple springs all rub each other to dampen their harmonics, and drying up the top-of-the-motor oil supply can quickly turn the valve springs blue.... which happens around 550F I think. 'Drying up the heads' with restrictors is an example of something that works in ultra-high-rpm drag racing but not on the street. Some WFO-Cleveland fans add pressurized lube-bars in their rocker covers that sprays on the springs. Short AN lines from a tee at the stock oil gauge supplies plenty of oil.
