Will oil line from front of block to oil sender port help with oiling rods and mains or do I need to bush lifters? Motor tunring 7500 and has Paul Kane oiling mods. Kaase pump.

I don't think so, but maybe someone has tryed it before? About the line from front to back...
Paul has went into this very mod in detail, I searched but the words "Paul Kane oil mods " brought far too many posts. I'm shure he will be along shortly.



Edit, Found one. Poke here> http://www.460ford.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135517&highlight=external+oil+line
Yes, in my opinion it will help. It is a good mod that I think helps in high RPM applications with or without bushings. Lifter bushings are a nice mod. And if I were to bush the lifter holes for restriction... I would certainly run the line because the bushings create quite a lot of blockage to the main oil passage through the block.

Bush the lifters and use a 360 degree full grooved main bearing.

Hey Bret, what size line is preferable?
