I believe the oiling paths are essentially the same. I used the same outlet with my V8 engines with good results. The accumulator and head drains will greatly improve oiling reliability.

Thanks for the help

With the head drains on iron heads (we are restricted to iron for class racing)
do you block off the returns to the valley some how or just install the drains at the rear (-8 ???)

I though of tapping through the end of the head low down by the rear head stud where the oil ususally ponds (upper row) and installing drains from there

By blocking off the other 4 drainbacks between the valves this would direct most if not all of the oil to the drains into the sump. Hopefully this would aid oil return and stop some of the airation of theoil hitting the crank
