You may want to go with a 10 quart oil pan to prevent oil starvation at extended high rpm runs. Or go with a dry sump oil system. Hate to see a video with a blown engine. I have been researching putting a ls engine in a 12 ft buccaneer. As I researched one of the things that came up watching boat builds and drift car builds was the need to insure the engine had sufficient oil. The oil is pumped up into the engine and does not return to the oil pan quick enough and the oil pump starts pumping air. Love the build it's gonna be insane!
Thanks for the comment. Yeah we have taken that into consideration and are putting in an Accu that we used to use in our NASCAR engines. This pushes oil into the engine anytime there’s oil starvation at the pump. We definitely considered a dry sump, but the cost is a huge factor. The spokes probably going to cost somewhere around 150 K by the time it’s done.
Not counting my time labor or the very expensive trailer we had built for it. We did just sign a contract with BTR for a majority of the engine parts and I’m working on other deals with potential sponsors of course. A lot could change between now and the completion because of that.
@@MoJoh20 I have seen the drift car builder's going with the Accu. From what I have seen it's a reservoir that holds about 5 quarts of oil and in oil starvation situations it pumps oil into the pan. Did you need to modify your oil pan with bungs for the oil lines or is your pan pre-plumbed?
Yeah, I’m pretty excited about this one. Should be installed within the next couple weeks. Then it moves to California for the real motor and bodywork.

Cheers for the upload, saw a sneak peak on FB of a very pretty pump that turned up from NZ

I think auto correct is a butthole and it might have gotten the best of your title. Cheers on the build!
I’m not seeing where the problem is. What do you see? That’s not correct.
