Default Over fill the oil pan

Tom Wells If you have the windage tray you can over fill the motor by a 1-1.5 quarts over. The crank will not hit the oil any more than normal. I have done this for the last 6 years with overfill. If helped with the high g turns and kept the pressure from droping to the 30's in psi. My accusump works as backup. I am not sure how much oil is used from it on racing. Better to have too much that none. Rick Lake Is the inside of your block painted or polished smooth? If not then there is 2-3 quarts flying around in the upper end of the motor. I also run a HVHP oil pump with 100 psi spring.
