Default Time for getting serious Sam

SSSammy Looks like Clois pulled another great event out. I see alot of sun. Sorry for the lost of your friend. Hope Keith can make it all better soon. Sam not to be the bad guy BUT, it's time for drysump. You have upgraded that car to bullet fast. Better tires, rearend, and driver. Will weight to see the pictures but, I think you are pulling too high a "G" in these turns and are loosing oil pressure. Remember that what you see on the gauge is not what is getting to the #4 & #* rods and main bearings. Depending on the block you also might want to ask Keith about adding a oil support to the back of the block from the front supply channel if the block is a top or center oiler block. If you windowed the block it can be fixed. It's done racing. Having a backup bullet is a plus. Gald you and the car are OK and no Oil fires. small side note, if a bearing or bearings are burnt in the bottom end, up the oil pressure to #80 with an HVHP oil pump if you don't go drysump. Rick L.
