I've often heard about the 'splash system', 'oil dippers', etc. when talking about the old 216's. I've never looked inside of one of these motors before, surely there is an oil pump of some type, if not how does it generate the little oil pressure that it has? I have one old truck with this motor but have never had to take it apart. Thanks, James
