I am building an Smith Aviation Tundra Boss, (a experimental stretched
tri-pacer derivative) for use in Alaska's back country. It will have a
Beech 215 84" prop on it. My question concerns installing a pre-oiling
system. I was thinking the oil pressure fitting on the left crankcase might
be a good place to install the accumulator. My concern was with the 1/8"
hole, assuming the oil is a decent temperature, can I flow oil through the
1/8" hole fast enough to pre-oil the engine? Or would the oil follow some
path of least resistance and just flow into the scavenge system?

I would love to hear any other suggestion about the E-225. I am looking
to keep this engine low compression, light, and reliable.
