I don't think that would be a good idea on a spray-oiler engine, since the main purpose of the oil distributor is to restrict oil flow to the head until there's at least 15 pounds of oil pressure to the lower end of the engine. If something gets oil-starved, the engineers preferred that the rocker arms be sacrificed, rather than the rod, main, and cam bearings!
