After reading through blakes build thread I have some questions. So if you are running h23 rods you dont need oil squirters because they have forced wrist pin oiling ? Would there be any benefit in running squirters even with h23 rods ? Does the h23 crank itself have oil galleys in different places than the h22 ? On aftermarket h22 rods do they still not have forced wrist pin oiling ? Can you machine the rod to include these galleys ? Also has anyone seen any difference in dyno numbers by running oil squirters on setups that dont technically need them, im figuring more drag possibly ?

 

most aftermarket rods have the oiling hole in the rod. but thats only for full floating wrist pins. you obviously dont need oiling ports if the pin is the pressed type. the JE pistons ive got actually have oiling for the wrist pin on the piston itself.

someone recently just drilled some oiling ports into their stock rods and chamfered the sharp edges. i dont really remember who it was, but it was either the all motor forum or here IDK.

 

Don't the squirters have to be bent to clear the H23 crank? I'd imagine them being a lot less effective unless they're aimed at the specific location of the piston Honda intended them to. Plus, the squirters aren't nearly as important with forged pistons. Do your aftermarket rods have oil galley's?
