How much oil is up inside a running engine ?

This situation is certainly a plus...

"...our Performer RPM, valve placement and port size limited the space for oil drain-back holes," says Garcia. "The Performer D-port drain-back holes were modified slightly.
Performer D-port valve spacing is the same as an original Pontiac casting, so we were able to lengthen the oil return trough, giving oil a quicker path back to the pan."
