How about talking to the flyboys in the Confederate Air Force? The Sexton engine is derived from an aircraft engine. It makes sense to me that those guys rebuild enough warbird engines to have passed along the answers to your questions like folklore.

Jesse,

Is this what you mean with the "impeller shaft oil slinger"?

The oil slinger is a modification, that predates the manual TM 9-1725, but is not covered in the manual. The directions in the mod order are not as clear as I would like, and my slinger is definately out of specs. It's not something I'm going to throw together untill I'm sure. Thats a good idea about contacting the CAF. Jesse.
