then how does a motor stay lubricated? The oil squirters don't lubricate the crank???
Hrmmmmm Maybe its the oil pump that pumps oil througout the engine? Im just taking a wild guess though

technically the connecting rod and the cap are part of the piston assembly.
That still doesnt cut through any oil in our pan. There is a shield in between the girdle and the pan. This is kinda why knife edging the crank is kinda dumb. It will lower the mass of the crank, but the crank and rotating assembly doesnt cut through any oil on this engine

Oil pump keeps pressure in the cylinder head and keeps the head lubed. Not the crankshaft.

So are you trying to say that the crank sits like half way under the oil line, and this is how its lubricated???

Is there a distinct difference from a B series motor for the S2k motor? Shiet I need to do some rebuilding then.
