Yes an 1808 limo. Yes JD that is what I am trying to accomplish. 8 quarts sounds about right. The date on the block is August 1940, so late for 1940, but from what I understand, just shy of 1941. With my frequent oil changes, I figure filter not a necessary piece of equipment. But keep in line mostly for originality. Right, probably the best way is to dump into base of oil filler tube. I am glad though that there cannot be too much oil to the galley. The start oil pressure is around 60, dropping to 42 after fifteen minute warm up period, that is with a modern mechanical gauge attached right to where the sending unit goes.
If I do the dump to the oil filler neck, I believe it was posted that a restriction needs to be put in line to oil filter, or direct return to galley?
Thanks so much.
