I wasn't necessarily endorsing the removable squirter for everyday use. Just pointing out the use of the retaining compound to hold their version in place. I recognize that an always-open squirter isn't for everyone. Since the engine in this case is a "race" engine, it's expected use was primarily high rpm operation. That said, it's understood that the engine is streetable and can idle w/out suffering oil pressure problems. Another thing to consider is that often times there are some squirters are found to be stuck open when doing a rebuild. Often times guys can free them up by treating them with solvent like Seafoam or similar.

I don't think anyone's worrying about the use of the retaining compound for the squirter placement. It's right there in the technical documentation. And thanks for scaring everyone about riding in their plane on the way to Disneyworld.........
