1 often wonerd if the centrifugal was vary efficient and you say it is so now i learned shitcrazypj said:At least it's relatively easy to bypass the transfer piece. 8)
The centrifugal filter is way more efficient at removing particles than any cartridge filter (unless you fit a giant two-three micron one ;D )
I'm going to try something a little different on at least one CB360 motor.
External oil line to cam before the filter. Small bore so oil follows normal route when cold then automatically feeds cam when oil thins down and pressure goes up at high rpm. Obviously there will be some oil feeding through pipe when engine is running but any extra going to cam will be a good thing

I've sent parts to various peeps in Israel in the past few years - if there's anything I can look out for you just let me know. I'll be happy to search for parts, consolidate here and send them to you.
just paint them if you must and move on but there is nothing wrong with them and they are not even visiblealonb said:I've got a bit of a problem with the motor hanger. They're all rusted and I want to soak them in vinegar but they still have the rubber bushings inside of them. I started prying them out but stopped to do a little research and found out that they're impossible to obtain. So I'm basically asking what should I do?
Here's a couple of pics of what the hangers currently look:

crazypj said:Either get it Helicoiled or buy a 'Recoil' kit. (may have to use eBay?)
They are the same as Helicoils but less than 1/3 the price.
I prefer 'Helicoil'/Recoil to the solid inserts, (solid are easier to fit but also cover a lot of bad work.)
Just took a look on eBay, WOW, Helicoils have come way down in price.
The sets I bought in the early 80's were almost $200 each
