[DeTomaso] oiling main mods

[Kurt Byrnes]

There's a Pittsburgh shop run by Jim Evanuik that does a lot of 351C's.  
Google him if you have a few minutes.  When I was building my engine, 
Jim said the only oil modifications needed were to bush the passenger 
side lifter bores with smaller feed holes to the lifters and if possible 
to run an external single stage wet sump pump.  My engine revs to 8k, 
never had an oiling issue.  His son did the machine work and head 
porting on my vintage MG race car as well.
