3/8 high banked help
Sunday, April 21, 2013 3:39 PM
we took my 2001 ln2 out for the first time Saturday and blew the motor. however this was kind of expected because we changed the oil twice after letting it run and revving it over a few months and there were still lots of metal shavings on the drain plug since its magnetic. so we aren't too sure if we blew the motor due to lack of oil to the pump because of the banking or because of the metal shavings. the oil pan has what I would consider a windage tray in it. but has anyone considered using an oil accumulator with these cars. or does anyone have any other suggestions that will help insure the pump stays in the oil since its a high banked track? thanks Jason

the oil pump is located on the right side of my 02 sunfire 2.2 ecotec so u just had a bad motor to begin with i think... btw if you built a race car with a quad 4... get rid of it
