I'm sorry Bill.

 

@Tacoma Mike

Did you ever use this tool on a sbc ????

 

Made my own..
Just for new motor first start or oil system mods

 

Yep
An old distributor an a drill
Duh

 

Hmmm.

Fine, you can stay.

Watch the mullet comment, Dwayne might get offended

Fuckity fuck fuck

 

We used to make them out of a trashed distributor and just spin the pump with a drill till oil was coming out of the push rods . Same as your setup @Tacoma Mike ?? I might one day build an engine again so ..

Yeup.

 

Greg might be offended with the goat porn.
Should update first page pic

 

Jeez man there aren't enough salty words for this ;(

@Tacoma Mike do they pre oil new engines they send to you guys or if you know those crate motors people order ? I have never seen one in person only in jegs or summit etc so no idea .

I wish I still had my custom made dual point distributor and accel banana coil.
No vac or mech advance.
Cool backyard ingenuity...
I was proud of that stuff I made

 

I thought that was the way everyone did it.

 

I remember when I put Mallory laser distributor on old 67
With high fire coil. Sumbitch was so tall out of habit reached over while timing and fkn felt like some crowd beat me with sledgehammers

 

No idea guy I built my engines with long ago showed that trick to me , along with where to get the clips to fit over the lifters to keep oil from spraying every where when adjusting lash. Though I came up with cutting a set old valve covers tops off so we didn't have oil running over the side on to the headers . I think he still has them though it has been 27 yrs or so lol

I carried this in trunk along with spare 3/8” pushrods. Big block Chevy and a young right foot was always a bad combo.
Changed out a few one day outside a 7-11 and back at it

 

Watching old Dick caveat show

 

Laugh in was over at 7
Goodnight Dik

 

You always want to pre oil any assembled motor just before first start.
Even if you had a dyno sheet with the motor I’d still want to pre oil the first time.
But to be honest they are not pre oiled per say.
Ours are not complete engines anyway and they are not dripping oil in the transport bag.

 

Didn’t do it to many times did ya?

 

I had a set of those too.
Then I went with my “oily finger” trick at TDC.
No more spraying oil..
I also went to edge orifice lifters instead of piddle.
Like 40% less oil to the top.
Still threw a shit load of oil
