Ported the hell out of the CB Dry Sump Pump and made a custom engine bar bracket (which you can just barely make out).


Where does the engine bar bracket bolt into the case? Just the two lower bolts or does it mount in another place as well?

Some craptastic iPhone photos of the progress. Passenger side scavenge side oil line run and the holes are drilled for the drivers side return. I still have to actually hook the lines up and clean up the install a bit.

I bent the cooler in a press supporting it with 2x4's and then another 2x4 perpendicular in the middle to distribute the load. It's not perfect, but should work.

Not real sure when I'll start it, I'm guessing early January.

nice yeamag. i did the same thing with the T fitting it makes oil changes a snap. I'm using the same thermostat also. i chose that one because of all the ports for the sensors. cool project....

btw my plug on my T fitting is male, so i drilled a 1/16 hole in it and safety wire that sucker. you should think about doing the same some how. that would be a shame to lose that cap and roast your new engine....

Good idea! Not sure it has any higher probability of coming undone than ant other fitting, but no need to tempt fate.

that looks awesome bro. im glad summit has the return policy that they do.... its hard to anticipate every single bend and what degree you need. i end up over ordering and then send back what i dont use. cuz you never know if the bend you need is gonna work until you have it in your hand.....

Got a little bit more done. Been thrashing for a few weeks on a TAG and shifter karts, so I'm a bit behind. Had fun in them at Cal Speedway on Saturday though!
