Hi. you will see that i have external oil feeds (for a cooler oil flow) to the cams, so there is no need for the oil to run up the rear outer studs, so the small hole in the crankcase at either end of the main gallery is plugged and also in the head so that oil cannot flow down ,hence the Dry block. Originally used to prevent oil seepage and a resulting lowered oil pressure on big bore drag engines (especially with copper head gaskets)where the gasket area is greatly reduced.Pasc wrote:What do you mean by "dry blocked" Zed ?
