Brad Billet Block

I have a question on the brad billet block. last year we ran our oil pressure gauge in one of the holes on the back side of the block and now this year we changes mains an rod bearings and now have no oil pressure from the same hole so pressure is now coming from the filter, but my main concern is there suppose to be oil coming through or to those hole in the block, because there is not.

one hole is for side oiler to main bearing or hook line from outside to feed inward
the new bearings were not drilled for side oilers so oil pressure not coming backwards to port

 

broke and busted

so right now we have both of the holes pluged,should there be oil in the holes or no, I just don't want to burn up the bearings.

BAE has a nice stainless loop line that connects the 2 holes or make up a braided line to connect them.

is it important that there is oil up there. because there is none. that's why we moved the gauge to the filter

 

We have not used the extra oil holes inn the rear of our block, and we havent had any bearing problems.
