Mopar Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 I was told that a bbf and a sbm oil in the same manner. IIRC Mine goes from the pump-main oil galley is behind the lifter bores on the right side. If so, what did you drill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 I was told that a bbf and a sbm oil in the same manner. IIRC Mine goes from the pump-main oil galley is behind the lifter bores on the right side. If so, what did you drill? they seem to oil in the same manner, but im not sure of where the sbm oil pump is. The 429/460 oiling system feeds the 5 mains from the passenger side lifter gallery. Also, the passenger side lifter galllery's oil path then hops the lifter valley (near the rear) and continues on to the driver's side lifter gallery. go here to see all the mods and read cafefully! http://www.highflowdynamics.net/ each mod has a set of pics, and instructions. i was thinking of doing the dizzy gear lube mod, but tyler isnt running the same setup as my motor.so no worries there all the trick on that site are the ones i use on even a basic rebuild.except the front oil gallery mod(for boats mainly, or real fast drag cars just for the big end on braking) basicly the oil pump channel from the pump the the filter is the one you drill and open up. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/gearhead559/tylers%20build/filterpad5625a.jpg small one off to the left.

Mopar Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 My pump bolts to the rear main cap. The filter is on the passenger rear, I hear some guys talking about drilling the oil passage larger. But I haven't found out what they are drilling at this point, my next motor will def need this mod. Checking your link brb.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Checking your link brb.... :D:D use ford guys have figured out the ways of the bbf/385 series. im sure it can be done. id have to see the block and see what can be done with it. im sure you can pick out some of your own tricks from the link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Some quick pics i snapped, i spy a similarity http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w318/fast79mopower/DSC09381.jpg http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w318/fast79mopower/DSC09384.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 how big is the hole now? looks like you cant open it much but to running into the main bolt casting area! but im sure done right it could, then blend the whole area in where it hit the oil filter, unless theres some funcky thing that bolts down in there.smooth everything out, and make sure the oil has a way to get back to the pan just as fast so i dont run dry that would be some carefull drilling. do you know how to mod the oil pumps in those to push more presure and flow? cause once you start making these changes, pressure drops some. but you pick up flow/volume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes its extremely careful drilling if thats the hole they refer to. They recommend the hole to be opened up to 50 thou, but I am just going of memory. I've had no luck finding any oil systems mods to read up on for these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
