Can't take all the credit for this , had a chat with Dave Billydooos regarding this.

Considering he did'nt build this engine (as he normally does) , he took the time to talk to me regards the oiling issues , top man.

Did you understand his accent Adam? They all talk silly up there mate!

Adam you have mail.
Your 1000hp Nitrous plate and water injection kit has been shipped.
Promise not to tell

Finally found what lifters are in there (comp) , gave them a ring & told them i've plugged off oil way in lifter facing lifter gallery , they said it woulkd be fine although the wrong lifters have been used.

Fired her up & got 70psi @ idle (1000rpm) , bit better than 12psi before lifter mod.

When's the first outing going to be? I'm going to miss Gary's picnic, so want to see this before if it's out.

Looks like your Gonna have to change the presure spring again Adam

Oil pressure sits around 60psi hot (20/50) , increases to 75psi @ 3500rpm , so all good , few issues with the 3 circuit domi , fitted Bobs 2 circuit & it revs like a stroked low deck , gotta get NO Neck on the body work , fit the bonnet clips blah blah , will be out & about next weekend , hope it's dry weather.

Nice one

Yea , thanks Dave.

Anyhows , timed the motor & it wants soooooooo much spark lead @i idle (30/35* ) , think this must be something to do with the speed of the flame front tryin to get accross the mahooosive dish on the pistons.

Think i'm gonna have to lock the advance curve out.......@ 35* initial & the motor spiked no sign of starter issues , good & clean out the tailpipes too , can rest a 50 pence piece on the motor @ idle , not bad considering the cam in this , got around 11" of vaccume too.

Adam, Now some will believe me when i said mine like lots of spark lead ...great big domed pistons in mine too

I got slated when i mentioned this after the nats last year

Bare in mind Steve , i did'nt choose my combo i inherited it , if it were down to me things would be different , it certainly would'nt have those pistons in it......................BTW , i have dished pistons not domed , big difference , Bobs 440 in the Bee has domed pistons with a quench pad , 18* initial/35* total , quench is around .040".

You did'nt get slated Steve , just an opinion as to the reason you're motor needs so much spark lead , to which i still stand by.

Hey lighten up & stop bein soooooooo negative all the time.
Lookin forward to yer stroker build , should be an informative one.
