Re: oil leaks etc

["Gary Blake" <garyb@fast.co.za>]

I don't use the banjo type bolt but have made up some bolts with a machined
cut out along the threads wide enough for the oil to flow. This cut out
stops before the head of the bolt and I use standard copper washers to make
an effective seal. There is no shortage of oil at the rockers and no oil
leaks. I am running this set up on two of my 6 cyl engines without any
excessive oil consumption.
Still with leaded petrol here in South Africa.
