FYI, I sent an e-mail to Barry Mumm, engine guy for Leo Capaldi (racing Cougar) who I talked to in the past & was very helpful. They had a Duratec with a plexiglass windowed oilpan used for oil system R&D, & it just occured to me that he may have some useful insight. I'll let you know.

Right, pressure feed oil to the crank - damnit I knew that! Dooaahh... confused
