360 mopar oiling issue

CMcAllister · 07-30-2018, 02:12 PM

In my experience, at higher RPM (7k+), these 360s get to be a problem. I've tried it all, including crossdrilling the crank, which didn't help me. Getting max solid oil to both ends of the crank is part of it. Limiting the amount of oil being bled off the mains to the cam and the heads is a larger part of it. Left oil galley needs to be plugged. Doing the tube in the galley trick is a mess. Have the lifter bores bushed instead. A number of different patches/fixes for this if you Google around some of the Mopar forums.
