I too have one although not installed and I'm planning on running the 
948.. here are some of the links and the George Folchi info is the 
best.  VERY helpful..

        That said, the oiler is a specific item and you will need to buy one.  
George sells them but they ain't cheap.  It shouldn't make a pool of 
oil as it only drips oil when there is a vacuum on it.  There are those 
who are updating their Judsons using another type of material for the 
vanes that reduce heat and wear.  Looks good on paper..
