I did some searching for this answer, but gave up. Somewhere here I read about two oil passages to the front cam bearing and an oil mod to block one off. Can you guys elaborate on that please? I have the standard Moroso oil restricters but nothing is restricting the front cam bearing. Thanks Danford1
