the two oil line fittings that are on the heads
drill and tap them on the back side
there is room for them in the heads
I do not remeber the drill and tap size but get a holly jet and you need to tap it at that size
someone else should know it too

everyone has their own cure to fix this problem. mine is a very low $$ cure. i sandwiched a 1/4"copper flare cap between the flare fitting on the head & the flexi hose connection. i drilled a hole in these caps to 7/64" & my low press while hot @ idle has gone. these caps are used in the refrigeration industry & cost me 10 cents. you can try a smaller hole if you desire as it doesn't cost anything to enlarge them.
That is a good idea! I don't run Indy heads But I've used those caps at work and they would work great for that.

Thanks for the info and pictures on this guys! This is why I love Moparts. I was just putting together my motor yesterday and while pre-oiling I realized I had too much oil going to the head so I posted a question on Moparts and within minutes I had good useful info and a link to this thread. (First set of Indy -1s so I didn't know this was necessary) Using the Holley jet was what I was thinking about and you guys confirmed it and 440Jim had pictures (of course...) Problem solved, motor installed, fired up, Cam broken in and ready for the '09 season! I didn't have any spare #70s so I used a #74,it's close to .080 but that's still way better than an unrestricted #4 fitting. I didn't have a 1/4-32 tap and couldn't find one on Saturday but I had an extra fitting and tried a 1/4-28 tap and it worked just fine as well. The jet started and made about 1 1/2 turns and then got a little snug, but since it won't be coming out and getting stuck is a good thing I just put it in the vise and used a good sized slot screw driver and it went right in (used lock tight too). Thought I'd share that because most of us will have 1/4-28 taps but 1/4-32 taps can be hard to find.
