Ford V10 height problem - is dry sump a fix?
My ford v10 wont fit under my cobra bonnet (hood for US) because it is too tall. I can lower it 4" if I dry sump it which looks like it will work. However I have some tech questions re oil circulation within the block. 1. Do I remove the factory oil pump and if so what mods are required in this area? 2. Where do I introduce the main feed from the external pump to the block and not have a problem with oil pressure/distribution? 3. Has this been done before and is there any special fittings reqd or available.
I have a full dry sump package available in my shed but not the knowledge to utilise it. As these motors are a rare item here its unlikely anyone in Australia would have experienced this issue in the past and I hope there is help out there somewhere, thank you. |
