Title: Looking for an old Pro Stock Engineering catalog...
Post by: jayb on November 25, 2012, 10:35:18 PM
I've seen some electronic versions posted onlline at various times, but haven't saved a copy.  Anybody got a pdf or jpg version they could send me?  Or does anyone have any original catalog they would care to part with?  Thanks in advance for any help on this - Jay

Jay, I've got 3 in the archives. One dated 1976 on the cover and 2 that aren't dated but are about 1978 and 1980. Not looking to give them up, but you're welcome to borrow.

Why didn't I think to ask you first before I posted this LOL!  Would you mind bringing them over next time you are out my way so I could take a look at them?  Thanks, Jay

That was PSE's side oiler conversion kit.  It included the three center main caps with 1/2" diameter crossbolts that were hollow; oil fed into the main bearings through the hollow crossbolts.  It basically allowed conversion of any FE block to one that gave priority oiling to the three center main bearings.  It was claimed to double the oil volume to the bottom end of the engine.

I guess a few people thought it was a good idea.I used to work on a few flat bottom drag boats and when we purchased the blown Keith Black engine it had that system on it.Pressure fed through the cross bolts...
