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)

Aaron I would be glad to snap a photo, but the part is on the car and I can't get an angle that will show it. Next time I have it off I'll snap a shot of it.
Fred the link shows the plumbing diagram for the CB pump. I would suggest not routing into the cooler as it shows. Use what ever you currently have set-up. You will need to run a pipe tap into the pump body to enlarge the existing threads. For some reason they are under machined. Perhaps so the installer can ensure the nipple he uses fits properly. Use black pipe, not brass as the brass can crack. http://www.cbperformance.com/images/DSOPSHU.jpg Jake said he is developing a dry sump pump that will work similar to this one, but I'm sure it will be a better piece. We have not heard of any problems with the CB pump, but it can be improved upon. |

I am currently using a wafer adaptor for my ext. cooler. The CB tank offering holds 12q, what is the volume that you use? Also, I would like one of your mounts, just let me know what $ to send you. thanks Len, Fred |
