cobrashoch Ron You have me confused?
If a motor is not run for say a week, when you crank it over it is DRY starting, any motor even your car motor. It takes 3- 10 seconds to build up pressure. Your may run a loose motor with .003 rod clearance and .0034 rod clearance. It depends on the drain back of the system from the pump and pickup tube. 80% of all engine wear and tear is done on start ups. It does not depend on whos
oil you are using. Dry is Dry. If you are looking for a pre luber, JC witneys sells one you could hook up into a tee off your
oil pressure switch. A one way check valve would work just fine. You are looking at a pump, I am using a accump to do the same thing. 2 1/2 quarts of
oil with the right pressure gives me 30 psi to oil the motor. I run alot tighter clearances than you I guess. I don't think that any wet sump system can make more HP or Tork than a Dry sump. If so Pro Stock and Nascar would be using them. You might want to get info from Avivad also, they have a complete setup for the 385 motors. Rick Lake
