3 Inch Predator?

Looking at the 3" bore headgaskets I notice that none of them have the oil hole on the flywheel side. Isn't that hole necessary to oil the top end? Is this why I see many guys running a line from the crankcase up to the valve cover to oil the valves, springs, etc?

Ya , I had much of it started on Bob's before the crash. I just don't have the time anymore. I started writing for ChaseNraceN and will have articles coming out on the fist of the year. I might have "Trash Talking" in the December issue where I get some ZH8 14cc heads out of the salvage yard and rebuild them...BTW , the stock Pred piston with a ZH8 will gitcha 17hp + with a decent cam...And yes, that block is sleeved..

Did you realize this is a 4 year old post?
It was a good read and all, being as though a lot of guys was new and didn't know that much back then. But I was posting 3 inch bores on here since 2007.
 
We build 3" bore engines. Honda, clone, Predator and animals. Also have the champion rockers and valve covers. We can weld up and put sleeves in them for you with the vent hole as well.
