36F30, let's agree to disagree. Your approach is fail-safe regarless of who is right. I just can't figure how a splash lubricated crank is going to starve for oil if the oil level is correct in the pan.
On an F-12? Yup, presurized journals for both connecting rods and mains. Splash lube on the roller mains and connecting rods doesn't get all excited about no pressure.......not at least for 2 -3 mins. The oil troughs inside a Regular, F-20, and F30 engine provided additional oil, but not the only source of lubrication. My F-20 takes at least a minute for the guage to pressure up, and when it does, it shows good pressure, and it has the correct guage. Not sure I would go plow 20 acres without no pressure, but a short run to get the system pressured up for a minute or two is not a crisis in my humble opinion.
