I never understood why just making the bearing bigger and or stronger solved the underlying design problem..... always sounded like kicking the can down the road.
Just feed it good oil... why is this so complex? You can get flowing, pressurized oil from a number of places..... If a flow of good oil won't do the job, then there must be some unexpected forces acting on the shaft resulting in the system not operating as it should. Hey, what do I know? Not much..... (seriously). Relying on "splashing oil"..... hmmm.......
My indy was using a DOF system, don;t know who makes it, where it gets oil from the filter cap.
Peace Bruce in Philly
