Lubricating the bottom end.steemCreated with Sketch.

No not like that wierdos. We welded in custom bungs and baffling in the oil pan. Here are some pics of the oil pan modifications. We added extra oil return lines to try and expedite oil back to the oil pump. Last year we had a few occasions on larger tracks where we pumped the oil pan dry and the oil was stuck up top with no way to get back to the lower end. Long durations of spinning the motor to 8400 rpm moves oil from one place to another pretty quickly.


Not anymore.

And custom baffling to keep the oil off the crankshaft.

Once it is finished it should look similar to this.

Well my mind was already in the gutter, then I see the word bung and reminded me of Beavis. lol

On that note, wonder what the hell happened to @cornholio. Hasn't commented in 3 months.

AHAHAHAHaaaaaaa. I miss good stuff like Bevis and Butthead. They should get together and do a cross over with like Rick and Morty or something.

So you built baffles to keep the lube off the Shaft !

Only in this one incident. Having to much oil on your crankshaft is bad in this case as it would cause airiation and cavitate the oil pump causing shit to go booooooom.

Yep taken a few Small block Chevys with a hole in the side of the block. Not a good feeling.

it was a great job i wish u goodluck
