Default Oiling for a 366/303 block with cam-driven oil pump?

Double-dipping tonight.

Anyone have a spare oil by-pass for a block with the cam-driven pump? Ha!

Or recommendations on options?

I think hard lines from the oil filter housing base into an Avaid remote regulator could work; but would appreciate real solutions. 1972-correct ones preferred.

303 tall-deck block going into a '72 Bird. 180 degree headers. Probably would be tight for the "stock" regulator; easy to fit a remote, like the Avaid.

Planning a dry sump tank at the passenger toe board. I have no pictures of what Adams/Baker/Lund did, but assume they put a tank there. 1970 Trans Ams often put a battery there; in '71 trunk-mounted battery was allowed and dry sumps.

Pictures of '71 Penske AMC shows oil tank where the battery was a year before. Lots of detail pictures of Penske; only glamour shots of Tin Indians...

Many thanks for any thoughts you have.

And nice to get back on this project.

Mike
