hi
I was just lookin around, and found somethin that wont be that common on here - but will ask about it anyway...
this is sitation from nissansilvia forum or maybe other forum - it was a reply from one guy on the question about "how to fix oil startvation and make rod bearings last longer on CA engine"
the answer is:
" Most CA bearing problems come from lack of servicing, not oil starvation. But like the RB's they can pool oil in the head @ constant high rpm. Larger dumps will allow more oil to be left in the sump but it's a band aid, not a solution. If you want a descent fix for it, there are two large grommets at the back of the head. Remove these and put a descent size dash fitting in each one and run lines down into high on the sump.
If the engine was still apart I'd also spend I little time 'deburring' or cleaning up the oil returns on the head and block"
my queesition is - I know its quite common on RB engines - to do somethin like this : http://www.spoolimports.com/spool-oil-drains
or this :
- but how helpful it would be on a CA engine?
also - if you add this mode - doesnt it cause the overall oil pressure to drop due to larger return line (or added lines) - thus lowering back resistance of it etc...? or the return itself has nothin to do with it - and if someone is up for it, just do it??
