Default Re: Flathead Engine Oil Pressure ?

The last one I did we added a 3/8 spacer in the valley and it lifted the oil pressure by about 15 Lb. when the oil is cold the valve in the valley opens ( despite the small flats on there ) and give a extra Strong spray over the top of the cam gear teeth and down onto a hole just above the dizzy drive dog The hole was placed there to lube the bush on the dizzy about 1935 as early engines don't have it .
