Default Re: oil plug 59ab

On this subject, how many of you rebuilders drill a .060 hole in that plug for a little extra lubrication for the cam gear? Before anyone says that this will ruin oil pressure, I did it on the 8BA in my '36 and it runs down the road with at least 45 psi when warm. I saw the suggestion for this modification in the Aussie's book.
