To answer the questions. The pan is a 7 quart Moroso. The pump is what ever high volume pump Ray Barton uses in his builds. They told me they always run 6 quarts of oil for windage loss reasons. I let it get a quart lower than that. I am told that RB’s engines burn some oil due to the type of rings he uses. I do get a small amount of smoke. As you can see in the one video shot from outside the car it doesn’t smoke much.

There is nothing like closing the barn door after the hoarse got out, but I am going to add an oil pressure switch connected to either a sounder or the horn so I am notified immediately if there is a loss of oil pressure. While going through the gears I am way too busy looking at the tach and keeping the car in a straight line to see the oil pressure gauge.

Challenger 1, holly crap 60 SPI boost!



Chris,

if you are only seeing 20psi above idle, I wouldn't lean on it too hard. That pressure should shoot up to above 50 as soon as you get off idle (1200 and up). Sure looks like somethings up.
