Reply to "Oil supply Issue from previous rebuild car 4907"

George TX
..sorry I got confused as the STANDARD OIL support hole on Main #1(ref my picture) IT appeared so big compared to the others, is thought someone had DRILLED a bigger hole. Could NOW verify the hole differences per Tom Monroe's book pictures. Frowner sorry my fist Cleveland.

On the restrictors ..
1)Moroso #22050 restrictor kits (2 required, need of small only)
2)I NEED to drill the mentioned 0.062" small holes IN THE Morose RESTRICTOR correct? So the cam will see only oil via these small holes?
3) need to drill holes FOR the Restrictors (boring the oil pipe towards the cam for the restrictors) to fit in block. What SIZE to drill? (not sure if my machine shop has ever done this)
3) Restrictors will go in all 5 mains on the oiling pipe towards the cam
(#1 needs to go decently deep, as there is a kind of T-shape pipe set up in the block
(need to go beyond the horizontal tube to restrict the flow towards the cam only)
. (#2-#5 are easy as direct off the main journal seats
(there is some confusion to me, as looking to George Reid's book p 57 on the set up from Tim Meyer the text is confusing Confused as least I could not get it)

4) Tapped bore bushings, need to see if the machine shop can do this with their tools otherwise would need to order the full set but costly as need to ad 20% VAT.
Where can I get the bushings from? Wydendorf only?

Tx again I am getting there. The cylinder bores got measured today needs to be only 4.020 as walls are pretty good. Looking for Pistons.

Danke

Matt
