: Got all my oil passages drilled out, and got
: all the standpipe holes tapped. Question is,
: if i put a standpipe in the lifter galley of
: #1 cylinder, Won't it just make all the oil
: drain out the end of the block onto the
: timing chain? Or should i make that pipe
: appx. the same height as the hole that goes
: through the front to the timing cover?
: If it does make more oil go to the timing chain
: is that a bad thing? Could be desirable i
: suppose, but im a little over my head, maybe
: one of you guys could advise me. My 18 year
: old son has fell in love with my four door
: valiant and im now driving my truck to work.
: He says the girls really love the old 66
: four door lol. Now my wife and son are
: fighting over the convertible if and when i
: ever get it running. Sheesh, now i need to
: find me a wagon then we'll all have a
: Valiant! Coooool, and to think they laughed
: at me when i brought the first one
: home.........

: I would set the stand-pipe at the same height
: as the vent hole to the t-chain. Not a big
: concern either way, the objective here is to
: keep a pool of oil around the lifters so
: they oil the cam lobe / contact surface
: well.
