Ok, so i am building this 6bolt engine and i put the new oil pump/front cover and gears on. I just bought a new 1990 oil filter housing and when i went to prime the oil pump, i had not plugged the two big holes that go to my BM oil cooler. Anyway, i had read about installing the lines to this and it talking about there being a feed hole and a return hole for oil. When i went to spin the oil pump gears, oil came out both of those holes. If there is inlet and outlet holes, why am i getting oil coming out both holes? I temporarily plugged the holes and went about priming the oil pump, but i had to find out if this is normal for oil to come out both those holes. Thank you
