I'm currently running a "tuna can" on the bottom of the engine for a little more oil and hopefully better oiling during auto cross. Anyone using one of these:

If your car is lowered, then the deep sump hangs too low. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
If you aren't having oil starvation or heating problems then stay with the Tuna Can. Most all the 914s in PCA-GGR run Tuna Cans for Time Trial with no problems. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |
