Hey Everyone (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Here's what I'm running 2258cc 10.5 to 1 compression 40 webers 494 web cam type 1 oil pump mocal oil cooler 25 row mocal sandwich w/thermostat adapter accusump 2 quart Brad Penn Air-cooled oil 15-50 (5 1/2 quarts) Let me explain my set-up The oil cooler is a rear mount under the car on the passenger side rear. I made some duct work and its almost vertical to catch the most air as possible. Track conditions Sunny, low 80s, 30min sessions question 1) With that cooler I didn't expect to run in the 230f oil temps. Is 230f acceptable? question 2) I also have some oil on the top of the case /engine tin pooling. 1-2 side. It only happens under WOT. Any ideas? question 3) I never set-up an accusump and I don't like it so far. It over fills the case at shut-off. Do I have to much air in it (9lbs)? Other then my oil questions, I had a great time. Ran a 2:51. My new best time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) |

Took the screen off and added brackets to hold the bumper in place.

Took the screen off and added brackets to hold the bumper in place. I was at it with my cooler today too. Added a ducting from the fan in the front valance back to the cooler and added to Chris's shroud to scoop more air from the under car stream. I ended up removing the flap on the passenger side like you did. Can't wait till next weekend! I am going to pit with the Condor crew by turn 17, do you mind moving down that way? Going to try to get there early. Miguel |

I wonder if you had enough oil in your car. When I first installed my accusump I had problems with "knowing" my oil level. Looking forward to seeing your new duct work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I'll be pitting with my corvette buddy. I'm bringing my bike, I'll be down there all day! Shane |
