Looks great! SM gets all the fun rules.
Just don't do what I did and fill the accusump with air instead of oil.Thanks! I've been studying your build thread for ideas haha (the oil accumulator might save me an engine)

I remember running at the LFUGC "pad" back in 2007-2009, no big dips to catch that new splitter of yours.
Too bad they don't run at the UK lot anymore, that was a pretty big lot.

It involves over filling the engine and then using the airvalve on the accusump to suck the oil into the reservior. Then check the level on the dipstick and add more to replace what is in the accusump & lines. You just need to make sure that the Accusump has purged all but 5-10 psi of air out, before sucking the oil in. I didn't do that, so I didn't have enough oil in it to protect the motor.I also have been thinking, now that you bring it up, how the hell do you fill the Accusump up without draining the engine?
Sounds easy enough. Thanks guys.Even easier than that....
Fill motor with new oil. Start and let warm up a few minutes. Add 2 more quarts. Start again and turn sump switch on and revv to about 4,000 rpm. Hold revs for about 30-45seconds then flick sump switch to off. Accusump should now be full. Check oil dipstick and top off. Done.
