Hi rpm oil starvation

Thanks for the heads up. I can toss their pin and get any diameter rod locally if their pin is tight.

I have put in an email to the supplier of that extruded hinge to see if they can sell it to me in its raw extruded form without the notches cut in it. I will call them Monday if I dont hear back.

They said that the hinge is machined before they receive it. I dont know if I will find the original source of it.

I ordered some material to machine a prototype. Since it was $90 a block, I only ordered 2 for now.

Too bad you can't get more for recycling all those chips you are going to make.

I get about $50 per giant garbage can full of it. The chips arent worth much because they are contaminated with machining coolant

Finally had a chance to machine most of a pan this weekend. I have to pick up a couple cutters Tuesday to make some finishes passes then I can remove it from the CNC and show it off. I also have to get a piece laser cut for it this week.

I will probably start a thread about it around next weekend and see how many people would want one.

Your pan looks great!

Your oil pan project had caused me to pay attention to the motions of my car and try to visualize what happens to the oil in the pan when on real world driving surfaces. One condition has kept me afraid of holding rpm in the 4500 – 7500 rpm range while cornering aggressively. That is an undulating surface. In the extreme violent pitching of the car would require a dry sump system. From the pictures of your pan I see how the extra depth and flaps control lateral oil movement and keep the pick up submerged. That works on smooth surfaces. My concern is how much vertical - g will this design tolerate and still prevent oil starvation. Could some sort of a grate be positioned over the top of the pan to keep oil from splashing up away from the pickup when the car is pitching in a turn?

I'm in depending on price.

It's going to be cheaper then the AM Perf. pan. If you can find one.

is the design of this pan going to support 9k?
