  Hi everyone,  I have a Goodparts GP2 Cam and roller rockers and a few 
days ago installed the external oil feed line as recommended by Richard 
Good.  It does seem to quiet the valve clatter, but took it on the 
highway for about an hour today, and after I noticed oil dripping down 
the evaporative canister. The oil level dropped about 3/4 quart and I 
refilled it. Then, on the way back, the motor started to stumble on 
uphill grades.  Im assuming I was sucking quite a bit of oil through the 
carbs.  Should I get rid of the line, or try to cut down the flow some 
way.  Anyone else with roller rockers run into this?  Thanks for any 
advice.  John Mitchell 76 TR6
