Hva not installed the Accusump yet. Testing so far (with 10-60 synthetic oil) shows no sign of oil-starvation.

Yes and no, it'll clear fine on one side, but the side with the crank scraper built in will hit on the main caps, you'll need to take a hammer and give it a few love taps and bend it in towards the pan, no big deal, did mine like that,no problems....

I also installed an oil pressure warning light, bought a sending unit set at 20 psi, anything from 20 psi and less red light comes on.....only time I've seen it on is when starting the car, once started and oil pressure exceeds 20 psi (which takes about one second) light goes off, never seen it come on on a road course or autocross course.....I'm running the Canton 8 quart road race pan with the trap doors, I like it, never leaked a drop of oil either.......
