I disagree , maintaining an effective oil pressure and lubrication of the bearings is what is essential . I preferred fixing the cause of lower oil pressure .. The high temperatures on the track with a much improved oil cooler . In addition it increased the oil volume which also reduces sheer stress per unit of oil without the extra stress of pumping hot oil at a 20% higher rate to maintain the pressure I now have due to lower temps . Also the treated bearings are proven to hold on to lubrication much better than stock bearings, thus correcting both shortcomings of the S54 on track .
