    camshaft bearing oil holes

    today I got my 360 from the machin shop , had them put the bulltear camshaft bearing with smaller hole ... I'm new in building engine and I forgot to look closely to see how many oiling holes per bearing.. So yeah in the bearing there's 2 hole, are they both suppose to be aligned with an oiling hole ? seems to me that only one is ??

    can someone help me out

    thanks

    Only the smaller hole is supposed to be aligned with the oil passage in the block. The larger factory hole should be blocked off. That's how it restricts flow to the cam and increases flow to the mains and rods.
