oil scavenging issues.
Posted: Fri Aug 11, 2006 10:48 pm
I am very concerned about my rope seal motor and its ability to pulll
oil up into the pump. I am happy to create trap doors and the like.
Is there a good design known to work well? Is there a better oil
pickup?
If this is redundant, I apologize.
How does the head drain? Only that one pass-through connector down to
the block? Does it hold oil up there, starving the oil pan?
My one time on the track with this car, not fast, all right turns, and
I had zer0 oil pressure down hills and on the brakes.
Thanks,
Steve
