Default My external oil feed setup

Got my external oil feed finished and tested and I'm Verry happy.
I used a Holley fuel pressure regulator an edelbrock lo profile 3/8 male pipe to 1/8 female. I I ran into the back of the head through the lash adjuster galley plug hole.
I drilled and tapped a hole next to the oil breather tube for the return.
I swapped out the factory restrictor tube with a new tube to close off the factory feed
Tested it tonite and was able to get an even pressure to the head

NICE! That is very much how I intend on doing mine next time. The only reason I drilled the head like I did was I was "told" there wasn't enough room between the head and firewall for a 90º fitting. I now know that not to be true. I plan on hard lining my next ones as well.
