transmission oiling and cooling, Once again, my approximation Options

[michel richard]

I will be putting significant power through my 901 transmission, with the new engine I am having built (2.5 short stroke twin plug six) and I figured it might be beneficial and fun to build a cooling and oiling system for the tranny.
The factory did it on some racing cars, both 911 and 914. There are pictures on the thread below.

As usual, I don't want to go whole hog and through the trouble of sourcing factory parts, so I will machine a system to approximate what the factory did.

This is testing the limits of my abilities, though, and there is no guarantee that I will end up with a system that is good enough to install on my car.

Still, here it goes.

I was looking for a sportomatic oil pump, and Mark Garcia found one in his stash. He was kind enough to send it to me. Here's a thread with those details.

After much thinking and experimenting, here's what I've come up with (the part is not completed, this is what I've done so far) :
