I'd like to point-out that you can gain significant HP with a dry-sump if you are brave enough (or desperate enough!) to run it electric-drive, on a total-loss system. Of course, the engine reliabili

What do you mean "total loss"? I can see the electric drive would save some HP. Do you have any numbers on the HP gain, HP required to drive pump or net gain, either engine driven or electric. Glenn

OK, yeah we run a total loss system, ie we run enough battery that we don't need onboard charging. I really wonder how much power it would take to drive the dry sump punp......now you got me thinkin

I think you are talking 15--30 hp to drive a pump for a 4-500 hp motor. That would be a pretty good size motor,w/big wires! BB don't need onboard charging. I really wonder how much power it would ta

I run a total loss system, and a dry sump (off the crank). I can spin the pump easily with my hand, so I really doubt it is eating up much HP. MSD claims that the quality of spark is more important t

Not sure if we're both on the same page but the dry sump system wants a minimum amount of vacuum as well as the pressure oiling. I expect to run about 17 to 20" vacuum on my V6. Some NASCAR builders
