Engine Oiling System

Full pressure lubrication through a full flow oil filter is furnished by a gear-type oil pump. Main oil gallery feeds oil, through drilled passages, to camshaft and crankshaft to lubricate bearings. Valve lifter gallery feeds the valve lifters, which feed the individual rocker arms through hollow push rods.
