[Panteracer]

I always thought a smaller journal was easier
to keep lubricated... thus keeps from having dry spots
and spinning bearings.. I think my dart has smaller
journals like a cleveland in a windsor style block

Also same thing with Pontiacs ...400's have a smaller
journal than a 455.. bore etc are the same but it
has an advantage.

Accumulator or dry sump is the best bet in
motors with issues.. never seemed to be a problem
with my dart block.. always a problem with my
Pontiacs... spun many a bearing in my time even
a DZ 302 motor.. but as at kid 8000 rpm was cool

I have tried many pans with sumps three trap doors etc
never seemed to work on a Pontiac
