I don't have a clue where they go, but can you give me some info on what all it takes to add the oil squirters? I plan on doing that myself when I finally get my lude and boost that bad boy. BTW do you have GE sleeved block? Did you have to tell them anything about the oil squirters?

Thanks,
Noel

From what I've heard, oil squirters aren't necessary when running forged pistons. So save yourself the money.

having the oil squirters is a good idea. they will make oil stravation less liekly. but on the other hand i've seen people run with out them. there a good safty percaution though

They are present to cool the stock cast pistons. That is it.

Well not having the squirters means more oil for the crank right? If it's just for cooling I'm taking them out so my crank doesn't suffer!

If you add the squirters and use the h23 crank, you will have some minor clearance issues to deal with as well. I would add them (IMO) if nothing more than a "safety net", but you will have to get the counter weights "shaved" a bit.
