    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Is it of any use on the street? Seems a shame that you would run your oil through a cooler, then send it up through passages in a searing hot block before it gets to the cams and followers.

Do a search for top end oilers if you wanna add more flow to the cams
 
Do NOT dry block a street 1100 motor! Well, if you want to buy some of my parts, go ahead! Or do you have more motors than I do? Dry blocking is a drag race only thing on GS motors. Ray.

Ray whats the main reason for not doing on the street?? thanks in advance
 
Can someone explain the dry block mod to me? I'm having an oil leak issue coming from the left and right sides of my cylinder jug base gasket. Engine is a 1327 with oversized studs and I think this may be the culprit.

Thanks!

Dry blocking is only done when you bore your upper cases so large that you cut into the oil passage in the top case. Then you have to use a top end Oiler. A top end oiler will help get more oil to the head
Len, check to see if you are getting excessive case pressure. That will cause the problem you are having. Also make sure both suffice are perfectly flat and clean.
No one dry blocks because they can?t get a gasket to seal.
