[s-cars] RE: AAN Drysump

Scott, that's great information, thanks.  My question for you, though,
is do you have a local track with a long high-g turn?

The guy that helped me build my engine is recomending I install an
Accusump in my 20v urquattro track car.  He spun a rod bearing at Road
America in the "carousel."  And here on the west coast we have turn2
at Pacific Raceways and "the carousel" at Thunder Hill.  Both are 3rd
gear, 180 degree, left-hand turns where oil tends to pile up and not
return to the sump.
