studbuckle Posted December 26, 2005 Author Posted December 26, 2005 I'll be taking the body off this week and be giving it a major overhaul plus I need to run the dry sump braided hoses down the side of the car between the ally cockpit panels and the body work to the catch tank which will be at the back of the bulk head behind the seats. Dry sump tank pipes will be very long. That's going to be a helll of a lot of oil in the system Quote
Buzz Billsberry Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Yep but I did the same on the rally car and it was at least another 2 ft longer!,I think it won't b much more capacity than the sump now. I'll be using a narrow tank it should be around 7pints Hows ya back? Buzz Quote
studbuckle Posted December 26, 2005 Author Posted December 26, 2005 I'm thinking of putting a swirl pot on the bulkhead so i'd be interested in your location. Back's improving. Still just pottering about at home though Quote
