    Ants reacted to Thom in Cleveland oil supply mod   
    Ok here are a couple of photos of the oil supply mod you can do to any clevo ( except the new arrow blocks and blocks with a oil restrictor kit as they won't see any improvement ) to remedy the terrible factory oiling that supply the cam and top end first an leaves the crank to starve at higher rpm.
     

     
    It's pretty simple all you do is remove the oil gallery plug next to the fuel pump boss and run a line ( can be hard ot flexible, i personally prefer hard line) to the oil pressure sender at the rear of the engine with a t piece so you can still run and oil pressure switch, what this does is prioritize oil supply to the crank first so you done end up with rocker covers full of oil and a starved bottom end.

    They fit ok, as well as the originals do sometimes. Seeing as you have to paint it anyway, clean up the inside where the outer skin edges are pressed to the inner frame and put a few tack welds around the perimeter. That will stop the flex that they normally have.
    At Ford they used to put a few spot welds around the perimeter to hold the skin to the frame to stop it "walking". The reproduction ones don't have those spot welds so you have to do it yourself.
