Spray bars for the rockers arms

To each their own opinion. I'll just say that I respect the engineering that went into the design on the vw engine and wholesale changes are not required to make it work, regardless of stock or hypo. If the parts are all in good shape then they work. If they are knackered then you'll be going around in circles bandaging and "upgrading".

I've done road trips with a t1 motor in my last split bus 500+ miles(one way) at gps 70mph with no issues, with just stops for fuel. No overheating, no oil flickering etc. Stock doghouse oil system with ext filter.

Not trying to deviate you from your plan, this is just my experience. I don't believe in modifying modern valve stem seals on a t1 engine. Just the stock square rings that ride on the valve. They do the trick by NOT being fixed to the guide.
