The goal here is to set it up for stock style oiling. -Dustin 67 Dart, 9 second, 392" G3 Hemi 68 Barracuda 340 F/SA

I assume you have the single shaft rockers.. do you have the oil thru lifters... but I didnt know of any of the W-2s that didnt have block to head oiling.. I have the single shaft rockers on my econo W-2s but I plugged the head oiling and use the push rod oiling because the lifters I have oil the roller lifter axle and PR oil also... are yours econo or race heads
