Which obviously wouldn't show up on the dyno.Only way to test it is on the track.I fitted a baffle to stop the oil surge but it didnt work.Dry sump is a definate fix but just the dry sump system and pump set up alone is $2k. Then there's getting a tank made and finding somewhere to put it as well as hosing etc.My budget isnt ready for that.So its a billet sump and swinging pick up with the baffle for me.Ryan schnitz in the US uses this setup and runs into the sixes at 200mph plus with a 1.10 sixty. So it should do me fine....I hope. 4 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/84870-2-wheel-transport/page/51/#findComment-1570754 Share on other sites More sharing options...
