Ok I know about the factory tray and now understand what you are building for the oil pickup. What about a crank scraper to pull the oil off the crank that leaks through the rod bearings?

I've mostly have seen crank scrapers on all out drag cars. This is my daily driver(i know im a bit crazy) so under long engine run periods the oil that runns off the crank can help to stabilize crank temperature. Especially if an external oil cooler is used like i am going to.

I've been playing with the silver car a lot lately, but I'm back on the engine build. Pistons are ordered and being made, should have them in a few weeks. Started mapping the ecu and coming up with a few methods of controlling boost on both the turbo and supercharger. But I cannot test until its running. As for the stock engine in the black car i thought I found the line but turns out i melted the pcv valve and burnt the plugs. So i had to redesign the pcv system and hope thats what took the plugs out. Currently running on stock engine with 180k 10psi boost (dasc) + 2shots nitrous ( 75 low and 200 highend)

Received the pistons, so i started weighing parts to ballence the lower end

So, to make a long tube turbo header i didn't want to tie up my car for weeks test fitting, so this happened. Now i have a test fit engine bay in my basement. And because the block was junk i also have a test fot block to weld off of

Test fit bay finished now to fit the turbo and start fabing the header

So i decided to run the ebay turbo kit for a while so i can get some tuning done while i build the long tube top mount header. Also got the block back for the last time, rotating assembly has been race ballenced and most of the parts are in. I'm also trying to make a s85 electric oil pump run the oil cooler system, i had looked into a dry sump setup but, im running very short on engine bay space. Not to mention, pretty pricey. And im already pretty deep on a motor i may blow. But it will be fun either way

Mostly finished the adaptor block for the s85 oil pump. And the oil pan should be back from the welders monday. Ive been playing with locations for the oil cooler. Still not sure yet

Crazy build, definitely subbed!
Is that the fitment of the OBX manifold?

Yes its the obx manifold. Ill shoot some pics whith the test engine in the bay with the turbo kit on

Nice OBX manifold SUPER FLOW baby

Some more fabing of the waste gate dump. Now im thinking ill need to turn out an aluminum version of the back plastic water pipe. If that goes well i may try and make the side one too

new engine build. dasc + turbo +2kits nitrous + methanol
 

Looking good man! If the aluminum water pipe works out well keep the schematics, I know a lot of people would be interested in buying one my self included!

Agreed. Someone needs to fab up some aluminum water pipes and make a fortune on this site!
