The Oil in the HPOP res. does that enter the engine or does it recycle itself? It was super gewy when I sucked it out. If its a separate thing I would like to put expensive stuff in it.

Please dont forget my previous questions.

It appears that your engine falls in the forged rod category, but if you suspect it is not original then the only way to know for sure is to look for yourself.

the plate on the front left of the engine compartment above the head light is that suppose to match the engine code?

I dont know if that is how it works.

Oil is constantly recirculating. It goes like this, oil pump, HPO reservoir, HPOP, then what doesnt get dumped back to the pan goes to the injectors, injectors fire then back to the pan again.

If its a separate thing I would like to put expensive stuff in it.

I would use synthetic anyways, truck will love you for it! For me the synthetic (Delvac 1) make my truck run muuuch smoother, starts easier, etc.

Gotcha!

There is a way to adjust the gate buy tightening the rod down a bit.

I don't know if I would as the tuning should take care of that.
