Oil cooler for turbos....pics!!

[202mphbusa]

Had any bearing failures or signs metal to metal contact ?

Not in any was shape or form
every time I COULD reuse every bearing and seal
That said WITH the oil cooler back in 2002 season after doing a 1397 I went thru three cranks
all MMMMM I think #2 rod
HMP case magic and lower end has survived some decent upper end meltdowns with no issues

Hi. He has ɗon his magic on mine and I have a Marine 2mm crank. Also have custom Corrello rods with HD pins and custom JE pistons. I was going to use Total Seal rings, but Eric at DAS tried them and did not like them so back to the JE rings.

Do you think the oil cooler circuit reduces flow of oil enough to cause crank or rod failures?
high pressure relief valve? high volume oil pump gear? Trying to understand what caused ur rod failures On the 1397?

or the back torque limiter

Back torque limiters, 50 profile tyres, clear screens, no radiator guard, huge silencers, no clutch supports, Gen-1’s second gear, early alloy subframes and fuel pumps, long rear guards, safety stickers on the tank and a whole lot more… are you sure Suzuki know best ?

Pretty common here for Turbo Busa’s to run street and strip without oil coolers. It’s not a big deal.

It was caused by 1307 allowing me to launch harder causing oil starvation on launch

So what oil baffling do you believe in?

My bike runs a stock oil pan with a OLD OLD Lee Shierts Sheet metal baffle in it
I have looked and it appears it is not made any more
