Thanks Michael, i'm still trying to learn the benifits and the idea of a dry sump system.
So my understanding has been, that it would benifit by allowing the engines to be mounted lower to lower center gravity, and then the engine woudln't be starving from oil due to high corning forces... and hmm that the oil is always being pumped up and fed into the engine? Doesn't a regular enigne does that as well?
As for the belt driven pump, is it a speical type of pump designed to pump oil for a dry sump system? And does anyone know of a company that sells them? or better yet,. a electric driven one?
And the external reservoir, information on this?
Best Regards,
Larry
