Oil problem

[RmvBfrFlght]

Does anyone have a picture of the finished product once hooked up to the motor?

It was easy for me to find as I recalled the engine being in a Porsche. Narrowed down the search quite a bit with that as the search term.

Notice in the link above, he used flared fittings not compression fittings. That would be the better method.

I have one more question about the oil mod. How much power will it withstand before you should put the right bearings in it?

Whatever you want to make for HP it will be fine,
My engine has this done to it for oiling the drivers side lifters
and I am at 680 wheel which would be about 780 HP at the crank.

This is a legit modification, no need to overthink this.

Pressured oil has no idea how much power you're putting out the crank shaft. Sending oil to that side of the engine is solely to oil the rockers and keep the tappets full enough to do their job.

Good info here. Time to drop the transmission and do this mod after having the same issue.
