Fronty head questions

[brasscarguy]

Has anyone running a Fronty overhead running pressurized oil to the rockers. If so how did you run the returns?

Some type of external lines I would guess, they worked well for Bugatti in the 1920's. Bob

There are no oil returns on the Fronty. With mine, I had to keep the felt under the rocker cover well saturated. The heat from the engine would cause oil droplets to condense on the inside of the cover and drip down on the rockers. Crude, but it worked. If you add too much oil, it runs down the side of the head, since there is no gasket on the cover.
