Any one interested in the oiling mods I did?

You may have the book, doesn't mean their reasoning is correct. It doesn't make any logical sense and so something else must be at play, or the explanation is just hogwash.

If the crossover at the #1 is plugged, then the only thing the drivers galley is doing is feeding lifters and/or pushrods.
Agreed it is feeding the driver side lifters, but it is doing so by using
The excess oil just before the turn to number 4 main, it's a bleeder if you want to call it that. If all you wanted to do was feed the lifters, that feed could come from anywhere. That is not what is claimed.
