Yes, Blackhawk Farms has a combination of turns (3A through 6, for those
of you who have been there), where you're braking hard while edging left
for the entry to 3A, hard right at 3A, followed by a left-hand kink,
then a hard left at 4 (which is taken flat, with your average Spit
motor), followed by left hand sweeper. All in, it's probably 15-20
seconds of turning left almost constantly.
The Accusump should be able to handle that, but it doesn't seem to be
doing so.

Subject: RE: [Fot] Spitfire oil pan baffling
I've been dealing with the same problem and am planning on modifying
both the pan and the oil pump pickup this winter. Same situation with
OP dropping in left hand turns and under braking. The combination of
hard breaking followed by a sweeping left is the worst. I've already
installed the IJ scraper and screen.
In addition to the oil pan baffling recommendations, does anyone have
recommendations on modifying the Spitfire oil pump pickup?
Thanks in advance
Jim Norlin
