Default RE: Saito 115 cam lubrication

Xjet, I have been consternating over the question of how four cycles get adequate lubrication to the cam lobes and big end con rod bearing. Ring blow by? I'm conjuring up a cotrivance in my little brain where I employ a Perry Pump injecting ATF oil into the cam drive box powered by muffler pressure to insure adequate lubrication and venting crankcase pressure/blowby directly into the intake manifold. I haven't acted upon this for fear I will be escorted to a padded room somewhere.
