The drifting issues come down to oil pan design. It's easily remedied by some added baffling, a scraper and running slightly more oil than spec. The "A" group of engines (both Turbo A and Group A) all ran a far superior pan which addressed these shortcomings.

i never said i don't make mistakes , actually quite the contrary I have admitted that i overlooked certain things. You have actually been very helpful with the info youve given me so idk exactly where your coming from with "pull my fingers out of my ears". I didnt ask any questions just answered others questions. I know whatever i overlooked was 100% my fault as I did ALL of the work myself ie oil pump, relief spring, and the #2 rod IS out of round. I honestly posted this asking a few simple questions and its turned into a big ordeal where I'm now being slightly insulted. I havent been rude even when answering questions that were answered in my first post and every time i've gotten a good response I've gone out and checked the engine right after. All i said is the mains are straight. the bearings PERFECT the rod bearings were also PERFECT with the exception of the #2 rod (I think it was out of round when it was originally installed) I probably was just in a hurry and measured a different rod twice. When the engine was being built/installed I was in a hurry because I only had this car for my dd and no other transportation, the stock engine had just blown up and I was still working a ways from my house. I realize pretty much ANYONE can rebuild an engine its not that much of a skill if you have the correct tools and specs. Thanks for the help/info but if i'm going to be ridiculed or told that i'm trying to impress someone i'll just go elsewhere with any questions. -__-
