Do any of the racers use an external Oil accumulator to prevent oil surge on corners? Or do you modify the internal baffles at all? Cheers Harley |

Harley, iirc, the Visa engine is prone to oil starvation on long, fast corners, but the 602 isn't... Road test by a car mag on a turbo'd Visa engine from some years back? ken.

Haha Viking! you just want me to keep buying Visa engines off you!!! Cheers Ken, i think an accumulator would be a worthwhile investment, it even pressurises the oil system on startup  Harley |
