RickLake Rick I have a Kirkham like Jamo not an ERA and if you are going to put a dry sump in the right front fender like I did you are going to have to modify the footboxes and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get someone to do it for free and I needed an oil tank I have been racing all my life too not just Run and Gun and Open Track stuff but actual wheel to wheel in everything from Formula cars to open wheel dirt cars so don't try to impress me I am just saying that you gave bum advise because your information was off by 50% maybe you should have said it was just as wild assed guess and the oil tank is going to cost at least $600 to $800 that is assuming you don't use a cheap one that will probably leak the oil lines themselves are going to set you back $600 to $700 add it up the only reason why I did it was because I was running a roller cam and I wanted as little strain put on the distributor gear as I could plus I think the filler on the top of the rf fender looked pretty good. It doesn't really make any difference what kind of driving Jamo does what he is trying to avoid is his distributor gear going away like it has done once already. I know you know everything there is to know about cars but I just wanted to give my opinion too.
