Hello Guy's, I am looking to modify the oil relief hole to exit into the drop gear area I think i saw this mod on one of the forums. The engine is apart now so i thought this would be a good time to do it. This is for the race car so it sees sustained 8500 redline a lot and all that oil getting shot at the crank can't be good. Pictures or a link would be good too. Aaron Racecar spelled backwards is Racecar |

I can't believe no response. This should be an easy one since i see undercrown jets and super high end modifications here all the time. To make it more clear the relief hole in the bottom of the block shoots right into a relief cast in the transmission and deflects it right into the crank. got to be a way around that.

Hello guys, Not the same mod but the stuff Harry comes up with... Wow. the mod i remember was a copper tube pressed in the the area where the drop gears are and run down into the lower case with the original oil hole plugged. i still think it was here that i saw it.

just drill a hole in the rear end of the block so that it intersects with the original passage for the drain, job done. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
