How does that work? Doesn't the pressure from the pump ensure the flow is only one way?

the extra plumbing and oil cooler takes a certain volume/time to fill, if it has to be filled every time the engine is fired well thats not optimalSonreir said:How does that work? Doesn't the pressure from the pump ensure the flow is only one way?
an accumulator then ? maybe not but accumulators are sometimes used in road race vehiclesdeviant said:This isn't a system to replace the existing circuit, it's just an added path. No cooler, but a reservoir to increase capacity by a quart. The reservoir will act like a regulator. It will stay full, and flow once pressure is reintroduced. I didn't turn it into a dry sump.

An accumulator isn't flow through. It's a reserve that allows you to add oil into the system, usually by compressed air.xb33bsa said:an accumulator then ? maybe not but accumulators are sometimes used in road race vehicles

yep they can save an engine in a situation where the pump starts gulping airdeviant said:An accumulator isn't flow through. It's a reserve that allows you to add oil into the system, usually by compressed air.
It's been done many times. Just another way to compensate for the machine's notorious oiling issues. I've done PJ's internal mods on a stock machine, and this motor has had the stock galleys opened up. I'm just taking it another step further with the bigger bore and eventual cam upgrade. I will likely add the cooler at some point, and include a check valve if that happens. I may end up adding in a pump, too. First, I want to see where this takes it. Here's a version of the mod with a pump:xb33bsa said:yep they can save an engine in a situation where the pump starts gulping air
and can be used for prelube prestartup
is what you are doing a proven ? i am not grasping the concept
In theory, it should be create better functional flow. The pump's pressure is the same. I haven't changed the motor's oil pump.adventurco said:All in theory. I'm just spitballing here.
Ha. Much thanks anyhoo. I have a CJ360 collector. I'll probably just order the CJ headers to match when I have more time. For now, I heated and bent these jawns to get me through. I have enough scrap crap around, I think.Tune-A-Fish said:Should of spoke sooner, I have a few nice ones and some used ones... never make it unless overnight.
