$$$anyone around Dayton Ohio wanna do the oiling mods on my block$$$

anyone around Dayton Ohio wanna do the oiling mods on my block thats done em before?... I have all the stuff do it and am willing to pay. gota get it done real soon as the block is about to go to machining.

I can do them for you on a day off . I've got a engine i'm putting together right now,but if I get the bearings from Lem wed. it should be done hopefully by weekend.

Me and Harold (342g) did his back in the summer. I have my own tools.
Are you in a big rush?

Jackson is a little to far no? not in a huge rush just wanna get this block to the shop so I can get the right stuff ordered. I might just do the Dist. mod first then the rest after machining as some one suggested.

"oil flows from the oil pump into the block via the oil pump pad. This pad has a 1/2-inch oil gallery on the production blocks and may be opened to 9/16-inch so as to match the exit gallery on the Stage 1 & Stage 2 oil pumps.
OEM Oil Pump Pad, .500" Diameter:"

do the same 9/16 hole for a Kasse pump?

Hey 138, Its a job you can handle yourself. Harold Webster (342g)hasn't started his build yet. I did his block. He will let you look at it . It's really simple, ya just have to be careful not to break that little bit off in the block from the cam bearing to the dizzy gear base. I have did alot of them, usually takes a couple of hrs. w/right tools.

Yep, I already offered, he said he was going to give it a shot, I'm sure he will be o.k., how is jack today?

on my old SCJ Block I drilled the oil pump passage out to 5/8 and then the line back in also......but on that build I also took the bridgeport to the oil pump and worked it over and the lapping table and so on and so on....

I got me one of those high dollar Kasse pumps, shouldn't have to modify it.

does it have a 9/16" hole?

I don't know it is still in the box.

Relative to the specific block oiling mod in question: it doesn't matter whether any oil pump's exit gallery is 1/2-inch or 9/16-inch diameter. It's the block gallery that needs the attention. Enlarging the pump-to-filter pad makes a very noiticable difference in oil pressure behavior by virtue of the improved ability for the oil in the pump to replenish the downstream oil which is bleeding off from the mating parts of the engine, regardless of whether the pump is standard volume, high volume, 1/2-inch exit gallery or 9/16-inch exit gallery. I tell my clients and customers that if there is any one, single oiling mod that they should do to their passenger car block, it is to enlarge the pump-to-filter pad to 9/16-inch.

It is of no consequence to enlarge the pump-to-filter pad to 9/16-inch and then use a standard volume oil pump of any kind (Kaase, M84 Series, etc.) that has a 1/2-inch exit gallery; the block mod is still a worthwhile improvement to the passenger car block's oiling system under such circumstances.

thanks.. and also a big thanks for the instructions for the mods.
