Oil to valves on camshaft norton

Forums

Hi all ,how much oil should be coming out from the cam box Union to the small pipes that leads to the head that feed oil to the valves?

theres plenty getting to the cambox Central oil feed , I undid the Union Oil feed pipe and what seemed like nothing coming out. Is it a case of when the bike is at higher reves a greater amount of oil will be sent to the cambox and more oil will be flung towards the inside of the cam box and then down the hole and down the union and pipe to the valves .

I had squrted oil on the valves before I started the bike just to make sure they where lubed . I didn't over rev as I was in the garage . Noise fumes ect. All oil ways are clear .

many thanks Ian
