Looks good. Is it fed straight from the main gallery? Are you not concerned that it will divert oil away from the rest of the engine as it will be the path of least resistance?

and four under crown oil jets don't?

there is a 3mm hole feeding the thrusts. Not exactly a geyser *wink*

So the heli drops can survive big power ? I personally would get annoyed with the sound of the drops, I won't be settling for under 200bhp aiming for 230+
Has anyone thought about cryo treating the drops for more strength??

My oil jets have a 3 bar check valve in them. The picture made it look like it was just a pipe aimed in the general direction of the drops...

Fancy converting mine *wink*

A bit of a thread resurection here, and a request for an update.
These elegant thrust mods must have had quite a few thousand miles beaten out of them by now, how are they fairing? Is this design a long term method of overcoming the weakness of helical transfer gears?
