360 wristpin oilers
I got my rods back with new pistons on 'em, but if I orient the dots on
the piston top to face the front of the engine then the oil notches on the
rods face downward throughout the complete rotation of the crank (rather
than towards the wristpins). That can't be right, can it? I seem to recall
being able to read the stamped numbers on the unnotched side of the cap
instead of them always being on the darkside of the moon like they are ..
it's been a while so I can't be sure anymore.

It all makes sense now. I was working from 8 to 1 but kept grabbing the
0dd #7 for the (mis)leading bank. They shoulda used the chevy type cap
slinger, anti-dyslexic SOB's. The piston Mfg.'s seem to be looking out for
us with their extra valve reliefs..

Yup, that's why I like Fords, number one's on the "right" then
numbered in order, rather than flippin' all over the place:
