Everyone who makes a bunch of money on these kits has an interest in telling you DOF is critical and your engine will fall apart if you don`t have it installed.

Actually, apparently now if you have an IMS kit to sell you have to add DOF to it, otherwise it won`t sell, regardless of being necessary or not. I just looked at the EPS website about the roller bearing and it`s kind of funny that they also add DOF in their kit even though they think it`s unnecessary

Just watched the PCA Spotlight: Types of IMS bearing retrofit kits youtube video that has Jake Raby in it and they put up a notice that you can remove the seal and there is no need for direct oil feeding.



So what's all the hype over the direct oil feeding solutions?
