Just wondering if anyone has looked in to this type of setup? Basically a pressurized reserve which can feed oil when oil pressure is lost. I have heard that oil starvation can be a problem w/ the RB motors. Here is a link to their page for some info: http://www.accusump.com/

also for those looking for sandwich adapters for remote oil coolers: http://www.cantonracingproduct....html

Any thoughts?

i like the reserve style systems. much cheaper than a full dry sump [1/10th of the price]

the nice thing to do is to use the electric solenoid.

just before startup, open the solenoid. that way you have oil pressure before you even crank the motor. you just have to remember to turn the system off before you shut the motor down [to keep the cylinder pressurized]
