brent, the oiling on the rockers doesnt come from the head, it can't there is a girdle that bolts to the head that actually covers the oiling hole. besides on a previous intake removal i pressed a brass plug into the head from the top to block it because at that point i wasn't sure like you....if i was feeding both places.

Barry,
so now the 3/8 pushrods are .080 wall with the solid roller.
i'm going to put in a cam much smaller. i will be going from 700lb spring over the nose to 260 lb, no roller!!!! also to get away from the PITA intake clearance i want to use 5/16 pushrods, so what wall? should i cut back there in oil flow to keep all the oil running around the lifter or cut it back both in the galley and in the pushrod.
or sleeve the adjuster nut orifice like i had mentioned.
