What rockers are you planning on running? The link is up for where the oil drain luines go, from my experience make them as large as you can. They can hold a good deal of oil if the lines are to small. Mine drain into the pan itself.

Yes I have bungs welded into my pan. 4 of them to be exact. Did the saem thing on the Valiant and I use -8 lines.
I will keep an eye out for some rockers. I ran the T&D common shaft set up on the Valiant and they worked great and do not require any additional machining to the heads like the individuals do. They have thier limitation but not until you get inta crazy springs and cams.

Tes I have drains in the front and rear of the engine, have always don tit that way. As for the T&D point made never been an issue for me but like ALL B1 combos pushrod length is very critical.

Good point I forgot to mention the water port. helps with hot spots. I also use a Mezeiere revers flow water pump as well. On mine I have pushrod oiling. So far no issues with rockers or pushrods with my springs pressure whichis not weak at 1050 over the nose.

I guess you found the rocker shaft blocks? ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/boogie.gif) Hated to get rid of the heads but sometimes things don't go as planned. Fred

My water lines are tapped into the block, the main water passages where the pump mounts. You will need to do a little/a lot of blending in where the pushrod holes are as well depending on rockers, pushrods used and cam profile. I run HUGE pushrods so there is a good deal of work done in that area as well.
