Pontiac oil tech 1931
Thought I'd share a picture of the inside of a Pontiac 6 cylinder circa 1931...
Noteworthy approach to oiling. First off the oil pump is submerged in the bottom of the pan. Oil gets plumbed to filter mains and cam. The pan is baffled around the pump and a windage tray is part of the pan baffling. Not many vehicles this vintage had this level of tech. As late as the 50's some were still dip n splash(Chev 6)!!! Friday I'll try to post the oil lines that feed the main bearings. They did a nice job on windage, drain back, and slosh. Last edited by BruceWilkie; 01-09-2019 at 07:05 PM. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
