Not knocking what they want you to build because some guys can destroy an anvil. But seeing that pickup tube would scare me. IMO i want a duel line system for anything over 5000 rpm. I see cars with stock or deep pans twisting them 6500 and i feel they just pulled the pin, explosion will follow, just a matter of time. I wouldn't think any thing cam related would cause that rod failure but loss of oil.

Well maybe I`m one of the lucky ones cos I`ve been beating the snot out of my 3.900 stroke 400(470) for 13+ years running an 8 qt. pan w/6-7 quarts and the 1/2" pickup deal. Bearings looked good at each freshen up and it`s still goin strong. That dual line deal`s a pain when a car sits for a while at least on one car I helped work on.........would have to prime it after a few weeks.
