I have never used an external feed line and I really don't have a
comment on it pro or con. However, as a TR4 racer, I know that
running at high speeds with conventional rocker stands, I get too
much oil in the valve cover. i drill and tap the oil feed hole in the
back rocker stand and then drill a smaller hole in it. Otherwise I
get a huge flood up there, admittedly with 50 wt oil running 180 -
200 oil temps.
