I have been wanting to do a post with pictures on this but have not gotten to it.
Drill the opening from the oil pump to the filter mount out to 1/2". Make sure that you have the late model oil pump mount and clean up the turns in it with a die grinder. Drill the passage up from the oil filter with a long 7/16 bit. Drill the center passage out with a long 7/16 bit. Drill the oil holes from the mains up to that passage with a long 5/16 bit and chamfer them at the mains to match the bearings. Plug the lifter passages and run a solid lifter cam. Install screw in plugs and head restrictors from Precision Oil Pumps. Get a high pressure, high volume pump with a big drive from Precision Oil Pumps. Use at least a 7 quart pan.
Run for cover, here comes lots of other opinions. LOL |
