Off. My chute takes about 3 seconds to become fully bloomed & then its like youve reached the end of the bungy, it pulls up really fast. Aren't you meant to drive into the chute ? Thats what a mate who needs one told me . Tex

Stroud chutes open nice and soft and you can pack them drunk and they still work great--best out there

I tried multiple locations, only one that worked right ..
Middle of valve cover , towards the rear of it , right above the rail
It would pull maybe a tea spoon a pass 10hg on the gauge with 2 shims taken out
The lips of fools bring them strife, and their mouths invite a beating.Proverbs 18:6

Splitting the line with a tee and going into both covers helps, but it sounds like you need some drain back lines back to the pan on your heads.

Sounds like way too much oil to the top end !! Took the words out of my fingers.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Sounds like way too much oil to the top end !! Took the words out of my fingers. possibly. it's an Indymaxx block & they dont have huge holes for oil to return from the valley. I have opened them up & contoured the openings to improve drainage. Before we ran a chute we would see maybe 10-15cc's of oil in the puke can breather. So i can't change the block anymore than i have & we don't have a lack of oil problem at the pick up, so i'm looking into an air/oil seperator to fit before the pump. anyone got one of them?
