I know about those. Had one on a circle track car for a while, until they made dry sumps legal.

Are you a SS racer?
In traditional Super Stock cars I would think an accumulator is popular since you cant use dry sumps?

Yeah, I have raced Super Stock a couple of times. I don't know of any Super Stock racer using an acumulator, or any Super Stock racer that needs one. Guys going a lot faster than you are. Circle track cars that often run 25 to 30 laps around a circle track without lifting, is another thing. Your the one with oiling problems. You have someone like Carl Hinkson & Mike Taylor trying to help, but don't seem to want to hear what all your doing wrong.

The other issue is the aluminum rods are bulky or big and create alot of windage over steel rods.
