: Hi. I made a shaft of proper dimensions
: and ran it with a drill. Wow did that
: make a difference. Oil pressure poped
: right up to 60 PSI and stayed steady. I
: was worried that I may have had
: something left out or routed wrong
: cause I added a remote filter and
: cooler and completely blocked off the
: original filter area.I brought the oil
: ins and outs directly from the oil pump
: galley and back into the block main
: galley. Hopefully I wont have much
: pressure drop. Any ideas as to what to
: expect in that regard??
