He said old school Ford 5.0's, who brought turbocharged to the discussion?Yes, you can have issues if the engine is turbocharged. It can affect oil drain back. Had that issue when I ran turbo.

He never said it wasn't. As a matter of fact, he never mentioned the aspiration of the engine. It was a blanket opinion given the information I was given.He said old school Ford 5.0's, who brought turbocharged to the discussion?
At least I understand what old school meansHe never said it wasn't. As a matter of fact, he never mentioned the aspiration of the engine. It was a blanket opinion given the information I was given.
We don't know this gentleman's future plans as his car is everything but old school given his suspension and braking modifications.
FYI, you do realize you can turbocharge "old school" engines, correct?? I've turbocharged a flathead before.
Good attempt at being a....ummm...."rooster" while adding nothing valuable to this gentleman's thread.
If you have something technical to add, please do so, otherwise let the adults be adults.
Hate to break it to you, however there is no one size fits all when it comes to oiling. All bases have to be covered. The fact that you didn't know what engine it was, just "old school" shows that you are just looking for an argument.At least I understand what old school means
In fact no one cares if you turbocharged an old school flathead or participated in Challenger space ship design. OP asked a simple question and instead of a simple quick answer you inserted turbocharged engines. Who's now not adding technical usefulness to the discussion? On top of that you turned defensive too
OP would have said it if he is, or plans to be "turbocharged" in what looks like an 80s or 90s engine. Despite being so remote of a possibility.

"amenities that my parents, being of the old school, still take for granted"
Well, his signature brought supercharger into the discussion, as I assume this is the car we are discussing (because it clearly isn't the termi-swapped one):He said old school Ford 5.0's, who brought turbocharged to the discussion?
Wish I could see signatures. Maybe I'm too new or does not show in mobile mode. To the best of your knowledge, is the Si self contained head unit or it gets its supply from the engine???Well, his signature brought supercharger into the discussion, as I assume this is the car we are discussing (because it clearly isn't the termi-swapped one):
1988 Mustang Boss 327 Vortech Si Magnum T56 MaximumMotorsports
That's a decently modified Windsor.
According to Vortech, if this is a V3 or V2 Si, it has self-contained lubrication:Wish I could see signatures. Maybe I'm too new or does not show in mobile mode. To the best of your knowledge, is the Si self contained head unit or it gets its supply from the engine???
Vortech said:The new standard, our most popular supercharger has a self-contained lubrication system. The V-3 comes with an attached oil drain extension so the unit does not have to be removed for servicing. The supercharger uses the quieter helical cut gears (3.61:1 ratio). The V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger is capable of up to 775HP on modified vehicles. Extraordinary 78% peak efficiency. Ideal for latest generation of improved breathing, high-power street and strip engines.
Yes, signature does not show on mobil mode, as you and overkill have eluded too. It has messed me up before tooWish I could see signatures. Maybe I'm too new or does not show in mobile mode. To the best of your knowledge, is the Si self contained head unit or it gets its supply from the engine???
Solid rear with MM’s torque arm, panhard bar, and adjustable lower control arms.Serious hardware there, way superior to what I used to run. Nice ride.
Solid rear axle, or IRS???
