if i go .003 on rods and mains both, and run a 50w or 20-50 oil this will be ok on a bracket motor? thanks guys


That does seem like a lot for the rods. Are you running steel rods or aluminum? Are they 2.200" or 2.375" journals? It will give more oil flow to the rods for cooling.

I wouldn't run straight 50 oil on a "mild" bracket motor unless you have a good reason. 20W-50 would be fine, IMO.





steel eagle, 2.375 i suppose at .0025 i would be closer to the .001 per inch rule.
