[Fot] Supplimental oil feed to head

[Kramer, Robert]

Also consider the condition of the rocker bushings in line and bearing condition in general. I don't use the oil feed line in my race car, but we have plenty of oil pressure at full tilt.

I have very good evidence that my head is lacking sufficient oil supply.  The shaft on #1 rocker has gouges about 1/16" deep after 35,000 miles.  Can one of you email me a picture of where you attached a supplemental oil feed line to your head?  Has anyone ever tried opening up that pathetic oil passage that the head/rocker pedestal interface has.  Has anyone tried tapping the end cap of the rocker shaft and connecting an oil line directly?

Thanks,

Greg
