Rear drive dry sump? I've seen "rear drive" or "bellhousing mounted" dry sump pumps mentioned a few times in the past. I've searched the net for information but have only been able to find limited info and no decent images of mock-ups/applications. Can anyone point me at an image or schematic...

I once read that ERA could convert a portion of the fuel sponson into an oil tank...I hope that is correct.

Dry sump ERA Were you planning to run both A/C and dry sump?

Some may not find this very interesting but I was amazed to meet this guy (Mr. Beaumont)today. I work in healthcare so I can't tell you how I met him but as I was working for this fellow, I made some small-talk asking the usual superficial/benign questions to distract him from my work and to...

Looking at a new aluminum RDI SBF w/ 0.1 inches off the deck. It doesn't really make sense why someone would do that to a new block though. -Scott

In your opnions, how much can safely be shaved off the top of a block. Any difference b/w aluminum and cast iron? Thanx -S

ERA replicas makes the bell. As for the cover w/ "ears", RBT makes them. There may be other sources as well. Good Luck!! -Scott

John, I'm pretty sure that is a 998. I have a lowly 916 w/ a few mods. It only has about 2400 miles as I don't get to ride much -Scott

That looks to be a lucky son of a buck. IF he's not already, he should be on the "wrong side of the grass."

Ron, I've seen several on eBay as they come up in my searches for an "original" Yamaha SRX ('76-79 SRX sleds). Something about singles that big...must be the way they disarticulate your shoulders just off idle. -Scott

I am considering purchasing a car (not a GT40) in Bozeman MT. Would someone here be willing to help me out by looking at it? Thanks, Scott

I've put teh imgaes in my albums at: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=2116862926 . I can e-mail higher res images to people if they want to post them here. The pics are from a film camera and so are not top-notch but are still acceptable (in my book). The camera was loaded w/ my wifes...

Oliver, Certainly no offense taken here...just trying to give credit where it seems due. Mr. Fagen is also listed as a former Canadian aerobatics champion so it seems that he has aeroshell in his veins and ethanol streaming from his bladder!!! -Scott

So here is what I could dig up: Everything I could find points to this guy and his aircraft being the real deal: http://p-38online.com/survive.html http://www.mustangsmustangs.net/p-51/survivors/pages/44-72051.shtml http://www.fageninc.com/welcome/welcome.htm

I'm not very knowledgable in the world of replica aircraft. Are there replicas? This one was in nearly unmarked (only paint I saw was a S/N and fuel requirements) aluminum and looked every bit the part of a ~60 year old original. My teeth nearly fell out of my head when I saw it. -Scott

Earlier this fall, I encountered a genuine 289 cobra in Appleton, WI and thought I was living right. Yesterday, as my family traveled back to Wisconsin from turkey day in South Dakota, I noticed a very large propeller sticking out from behind a building about a 1/4 mile off the highway just...

Re: 17\" wheel sadness Sorry to hear of your experience and thank you so much for sharing. In the interest of learing from other's misfortune, who will you choose to make the next set of wheels? -Scott

I was there but on the opposite side of the track when this happened. Apparently there was a fist fight that broke out shortly after the pile up. A GREAT event but a pity this happened. Scott
