    Um, oiling?

    Alright guys, my 360 out of my waggy is completely tore down and headed to the shop. Is there anything i should do oiling wise? what should i look for on timing cover wear? I was getting pretty good oil pressure. But this engine is NASTY. Lots of sludge. Are there any passages i should open up more? Any tips would be great!

    On some of the old stickies, all I get is a red star and no picture. I assume the pictures need to be reposted, espesially if this is on a sticky.

    What you want to do is force oil to the crankshaft which means taking it from the camshaft and the top end of the motor. I would install smaller hole cam bearings like the ones we sell whether you buy from us or someone else. I would also inspect your timing cover and at least update your oil filter adaptor. Look for a set of small oil feed hole rockers (we offer those). Make sure that timing cover is in spec it sucks to build a new motor and have a bad oil pump ruin it :( Need more tips please call us at 651-257-7917
