To convert the upper case #6 wet to dry sump
 
Doing my own conversion to dry sump. Need somebody that can tell me what size to make the bearing squirters. All machine work is done on upper case. Some body told me .050 should be about right size to supply the bearings. If anybody can tell me what a stock #6 dry sump is. I have the factory squirters for the gears. Thanks Eric.

Probably like the formula for Coke.

If I'd have spent the time and $$ to develop a product that I was going to make a living on, I'd probably want to not give it away for free. They most likely had to ruin some parts to figure out the point between "too much oil/ losing power" and "not enough oil/smoking parts" lies.

bigger is not better. Check it with air/oil mix at psi of pump. watch nozzles and make sure they are working.

How ever Chris Sunkin hit the nail on the head pretty much.
