ITA CRX D16 Oil pan Baffling

[Chip42]

We used to run about a half qt low on purpose at places like roebling road in a d16a6 because the long side loads would end up just burning the excess. To that end, a scraper and better windage tray help, baffles not so much. I agree with Tom about running an accusump. Better some insurance than none, and pre oiling is useful.

I am running an accusump on my D16A6 Bullet motor and an OE pan. I have not seen pressure below 60 while on track. Usually it is around 75.

An Accusump will not help raise pressure, but works to stabilize what you have.

They have been around a long time and are very well thought of. All my race cars have them. In and of themselves, they do not weigh much. The plumbing and oil in them weigh more than the can!

Where are you plumbing it into a D15 motor?

On my D16 it is plumbed to a sandwich adapter at the oil filter. Oil filter is remote.
