Silly question time.... Given the amount of oil that would be thrown around by the crank, and rods etc., can anyone tell me why there would be a need for the two 1/8" holes in the big ends of the rods ?  Given that oils and lubrication ability is superior these days, was this something to help with the lubrication of the bores with the oil quality of the day?
