#1 cam bearing removed, and oil crossover sorted.
Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
Bad photo, but they are rounded slightly for the entry/exit to the groove. But obviously not to the bearing surface (as why would you)Now you need a small ball burr to round off the edges of those holes

I love that lifter valley!
Glyptal... in use in my race engines for 20+ yearsI love that lifter valley!
I've always wanted to try Glyptal and am still deciding whether I want to try with this build as we all know with a Holden any way of helping oil get back to the bottom end as fast as possible is good. but have always been paranoid about not having the surface 100% decontaminated and it flaking or peeling once I get the engine running and I can't see it.
Yes!
That's my next plan.
What thread size do you use for fittings?
Does it need to be primed before hand etc or just brush on?Glyptal... in use in my race engines for 20+ years
never flaked, peeled or chipped
Neil Burns (LPs engine builder) said try it... Larry has used it since the 80s
