Don---and others

You do not get splash to the cam by raising the oil level---the level of the oil is below the crank/rods and /or windage tray---even if you add SOME oil

Actually the cam gets oiled by oil slinging off the rod journals and by leakage down from the top of the engine---this is the reason for running the engine at 2000-2500 rpm for 20-30 minutes to break in the cam--more sling-----

Original rods and bearings had a hole so oil would be squirted up bat all the new rods/cranks don't have adquate side clearance or the squirt holes and the cam lobe and lifter bases suffer from too little oil
