I'm trying a .062 hole size on my 525 with .903 bushing type crower lifters. Will see how it goes.
I think I'm around .080 feed hole in the bushing. I primed the engine with the lifters removed and there is lots of oil comes through those holes in the bushings.



May I ask what oil pressure your running? Thanks

20/50 oil at .003 3in main clearance and .0025 rods seems to net around 35 psi hot idle and 75 ish psi at 6500 with a 80 psi pump. I used a .070 shim on the blower engine and nitro 50w oil. That engine was started at the burn out area and did not build much oil temp. 100 psi was common.
