The reviews by mechanical engineers have always agreed with this, but that

When you build a gear train, you don't just rely on rpm to lubricate -
there are pressure ports, the gears are raked, the oil bath has more
volume, etc.

I can build a 6x2x6 box and make oil foam under high rpm - it proves
nothing.


Yeah, but foaming oil *is* one of the reasons why you're not supposed to
overfill, at least with certain types of engines. I wonder why this is a
concern.
