Your right, that would be alot of oil to suck up in 9 or 10 seconds, but when the oil is hot and thin I'm sure alot of it ends up at the back of the pan on the launch and with some trapped up top could add up. I'm using the Edelbrock victor heads and they do seem to trap some oil on outer cover rail. Combine that with a Milodon high volume pump and that could be a problem. I will be sure to watch that gauge on first couple passes. Wont have time or money to get the 4.30 gear and spool out in exchange for a 3.73 and track loc diff, so 1/8 is what i will be running for this yr. Running out of oil in 1/8 should not be a problem thou.
