Can anybody explain how you go about drilling out the middle bearing oil passage on a Spitfire engine. Obviously the one from the bearing side is easy. But I cannot figure out how the passage from the oil galley over to the dogleg is to be drilled. Callums site says there is a distributor bushing in the block that must be driven out from the bottom. But I cannot get anything to move. Also, it looks like you would have to drill throgh one of the exterior oil galley plugs. Is this correct?
I was thinking about doing this on my 1500 engine that I am about to rebuild.
