Your
oil is up in the motor, at higher rpm's. But mainly wrapped around the crank. My
oil restrictors are brass screws cut about 5/16's long slotted and drilled with the smallest drill bit ACE hardware carries.062 was too large.Couldn't find it but it was the smallest bit they had. still flows plenty for my Dove rollers. You cant imagine how much
oil your engine moves I was shocked when I spun the oil pump with an cordless drill motor. Plastic catch pan under a friend spun it while i watched. It has to move more while running. So keep filters ,coolers fed with an-8 line min. I'll be using an-10 line to reduce friction,and let oil flow unrestricted with a bypass line for the cooler. Your correct let that oil warm up. Excessive oil pressure uses horsepower, More's Law doesn't always apply enough is enough. When my system is full I have almost 12 quarts oil with the oil to the bottom of the windage tray.Knowing that will drop some when the motors fired up. Can you Imigian the turblence all those pistons pumping on the bottom side. a little vaccume on the crankcase doesnt hurt, keeps the seals from leaking,gaskets too. A nice an dry FE what do you know? Thanks All Jimmymac
