Talking to some track dudes some have said they gave up driving T4s due to loosing to much oil on the track and no matter how big the Acusump was, they still burned out bearings. What is your solution to this problem? THNX (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

A full deep sump was the only solution to completely solve my oil problems. I have 2 qt. accusump and it would keep pressure in turns but then on occasion, oil pressure would drop almost to zero for 5-10 seconds as the pump lost priming and the accumulator refilled.
However, my first day out with deep sump, it was destroyed by crankshaft pulley that came off a car in front of us. I will install new one but need to weld some type of shield to the engine cross bar. If I had to do all over, I would go dry sump. |
