Post pix of your LT1 engine.
I can actually play this game, wasn't too long before I got into the LS craze that I built this little forged 355 for a C4 that I had. Fully forged Scat bottom end, Speed Pro pistons, Comp custom grind, and a little set of Headmann headers. Was a pretty nice little power plant I just didn't like the car all that much so I moved on

And it is proven to help get the oil back in the pan a little faster.....if it actually helps I couldn't tell you....
Painted and clear coated along with totally deburring the oil galley returns. The faster the oil get back out of the lifter valley the less heat you retain under the intake itself, essentially dropping intake internal temperatures. Old school SBC speed secret now you know, you can also paint the bottom of the actual intake itself to slow the transmission of heat from the oil spraying on the bottom of it.

deburring is removing all the sharp edges, so that oil has a nice smooth path to follow. Another trick instead of painting, I've seen guys grind the entire valley smooth to a fine shine, looks like they polished cast iron.
