Like i said maybe a drysump system is overkill but having the safety of an accusump could be the difference of spinning a bearing or not. I have a 2.65 stroker, ported heads, oversized valves, 280 cams, and a 40r. Knowing i am going to have some lag i want to make up for it on the back end. If i could rev between 8400-9k rpms it would make a whole lot of difference than going to 8k rpms. Can a 12mm pump handle this? from the research i have done, speaking with my tuner, and posting on other sites the anwser i get is basically "maybe". I am not saying you guys dont know what your talking about because i know thats not the case, but my idea has been smothered by negativity or people posting when not knowing the facts.

You can come back and write a book about how you are right and i am wrong or you can help me answer some of the question i have. What is it going to take, should i spend the least amount and go with accusump or just go for something that is going to be better but more expensive. To many times do i get on here and watch threads go down the drain from arguing about things that dont need to be argued about. with that said i dont want this to end up being one of those threads. I just want help from people who are going to be supportive and get some facts before rambling on and on and on.

I apologize for attempting to answer your vague posts with accurate and detailed information. From now on I'll just stick to short snide comments since clearly I'm wasting my time posting replies that you don't want to hear regardless of whether or not they're backed by the 1st hand experience you said you wanted.
