Dry Sump Gen 1 Busa

[straightnfast]

going to use a dry sump on my new build, anything you guys can offer in the way of advice??

What for?

 

[ogre]

why? lots of extra weight for a slight loss of the parasitic drag associated with a wet sump motor. a multi stage dry sump system would take a ton of room too.

If you want, just route the breather cover vent to the pair valve = poor man's crankcase vacuum setup.

as far as advice, make sure yo've got enough room for all of the plumbng and tank. Go with a four stage pump. Make sure you've got very deep pockets. Have an adjustable vacuum relief valve installed. This will let you tailor how much vacuum is inside the engine. There is a point where to much isn't as good as just enough. Also, make sure you've got some kind of MAP sensor plumbed in so you can datalofg what's going on.

i mean, if you just want to pull vacuum on the crank case for better sealing, you can run one of these kits from milodon. the angle of the cut on the end of the tube creates a vacuum in the tube that you run to your crank case ventilation. NOT smog legal, and may or may not cause buildup of oil in your exhaust. you can run a catch can if you're worried about that tho.

for best results, have them welded into your exhaust where velocity would be the greatest.
