OK I hate to say this but I need to get in gear and get this stuff in.. Time is starting to catch up, and 3 months isnt that long really... I plan to run a oil accumulator. I have NOT run one in the past. Im looking at the Canton's cause the match my paint LOL.. I would really like a electric valve control. I know some of these from what I understand doesn't open fast, and for pre-oiling only...Well I don't want that kind and I know to watch out when buying. So right now Im looking at the 20-25 LBS electric valves style? Should I choose a diff one? At least a two quart version maybe three? Also How did you plumb these into your oil supply? I have duel line system that uses a spin on filter. I was thinking there was a sandwich filter adapter available. It would be the easiest to plumb, I plan to mount the accumulator in front of the radiator, so a short line through the rad support down low will keep everything neat and uncluttered. So if anyone here uses the manual valve, how do you like it? If anyone has a part number on a adapter that would be great..I dont know if the oil cooler adapters will work or not? This block has a oil port near the front of the block, but I am using it for one of the duel line system ports. I dont know how well this would work plumbing it to one of the oil galleys in the back of the block...Not to mention the clutter of having a probably a minimal -8AN line and probably needs a -10 really.

I have a Master Lube I have it plumed in on the outer cover of the oil pump where the line from the oil pan hooks up.I have it going in on the top side of pump.I think the oil pump is better than on the back of block.I have the tank mounted on the deflecter plate(back of seat).

I disagree, respectfully. Any time I have seen an oiling problem where an accumulator would help IMO, it has been in the rear of the engine. You be forcing cooler, higher pressure, unaerated oil backward thru the system thru a shorter path to trouble prone areas.

I run a Moroso 3 qt accumulator with Moroso's electric solenoid valve, Indy billet pump cover with spin on filter adapter, to a single swinging pick up. I have the valve on a 3 position switch. 0N/OFF/ON momentary. I flip the momentary on to prime engine and flip the switch to "on" before I stage the car. While the switch is in the off position and the car is running, the engine will pressurize the accumulator to the highest oil pressure the engine sees. Then it is ready to prime the next start up. I have the line plumbed into the filter adapter on the Indy pump cover. I really like the priming aspect of it.

OK the duel line system I am running uses this fitting on the block to provide on of the lines to the swinging pickup in the pan. (other is coming from the pump cover.. Anyways Can I just add a T here? one still going to the swinging pickup as before, but the other going to the accumulator?

Like stated above using fitting will most likely result in oil just going to the pan period. Use the one on the back of the block, easy way that works. Or use the filter housing if going remote. I use the filter mount on the B1 on my Hemi I went with the nack of the block.
