Re: What oil feed setup are you using, and how is it working out?

Actually, I'll be doing this. Im going to but a second oil pressure gauge on my durbo feed line, after my restrictor. Im planning on making a AN fitting that has a changable restrictor (small engine jet or somthing similar) so I can fine tune the oil pressure.

The math says that to reduce pressure by 50 percent, you reduce the total area by 50 percent in the restrictor. So after the restrictor, when the line goes back to normal size, the pressure will be reduced.

The gauge is probably overkill, but should be a good learning expierience.
