I can't remember where I read it, and it was several years ago, but someone did a mod on their push rod tubes in an effort to keep the crankcase oil from sloshing into the heads on hard cornering. I think it had something to do with attaching the end of a Type I PR tube to the "case side" of a T4 tube which made it extend farther into the case. This supposedly prevented (to a certain extent) as much oil from entering the heads during a hard cornering, yet still allowed the heads to drain normally.
Anyone heard of, or done this? |
