So I am running Pauter roller rockers on my turbo motor and there has been some concerns raised by Jake Raby and Charles Navarro about them failing because they are not self-oiling. Does anyone have any information or pictures on installing a set of oil squirters in the valve covers to lubricate the rockers? Where would be the best place to tap into the engine's oil system? What kind or nozzles do you run and how much oil should be routed to them? These are just a couple of questions that I have...I am sure that more will come up as the discussion begins.

QUOTE(markd@mac.com @ Nov 3 2004, 01:27 AM) What about pin holes in the actual push rods? They're full of oil. If I remember right that's one solution (one pin hole near the tip) that Jake has used and I "think" it worked for him. Again I “think” that he also welded the one tip shut on these pushrods. I'd have the same concerns as Brett. If you went the tubing route I'd tap them right into the head, It would be a PITA adjusting valves if they were in the cover. |
