DRY SUMP!?
i would like to increase the oil capacity to help with temp and starvation problems in corners not that i am having any i just wanted to see if anyone has ever seen it done. I know there was a company making small batches that where in the 5k range and not 15k like spoon . Any thoughts?

i wonder if i could add it to the stock serpentine system with the blower pulley on there isn't enough room in front due to the steering rack. I don't have a mill or lathe but am very good with my tig welder and i have band saw drill press and a break for up to 1/4 inch thick aluminum so i can make most of it except the pulleys. I wonder if i could fit it in with the blower but i would need a stack of pumps to mock up time to start looking for some worn out nascar parts

It's a RED kit but about the only bit that's been left the same is the sump casting - altered all the gauzes, hoses, mountings for pump, etc, because the rest of the kit was frankly shit and/or just plainly didn't fit - In fact the first pump that got delivered with the kit was DOA and you could tell just from a hand check, had to change it.

i have done a bit of research in regards to dry sumping the f20/22c before starting my own system. there are kits available but i didn't like any of them so i built my own. the oil requirements of these engines is tremendous when vtec engages (100LPM). i contacted peterson directly to ensure i got the right parts. i am using one of their r4 pumps and an external regulator to bypass the oil at low rpm. i am also using one of their tanks and inline oil filters.
to run the pump you will want an htd or similar gear/belt set to run the pump. this is critical- a toothed belt must be used to ensure there is no belt slip. running out of oil pressure due to a slipping belt can be very bad for your engine.
there are lots of pics of all the custom parts i made and the install on my fb. i am currently revising the system and building a new pan/pump mount. if anyone is interested in the old pan, they can have it for $300 shipped.
