Are you running external lines.

A paltry 400 and summat, but then the Eyeties ain't exactly renowned for over-engineering and reliability ;)

Moroso external pump on a belt drive feeding the block, supercharger and oil splash system, plus Accusump system and remote filter.

Would the Unisteer bolt on rack give you more clearance, and getting a RHD rack, non power steer.

You wouldn't have to worry about the terrible steering geometry and bump steer caused by a system like that because it is going to be a track only car.

Anyway with 8 quarts of oil under your rear tyres steering is along for the ride :shock:

I don't like the look of that system at all, rack hanging in the breeze on those long brackets, and what sort of crazy angles would the UJ's be at to hook up the column? And as Dave say's, it could well have bump steer issues like a lot of these conversions do.

by the look off that, that system would not help kev in the sump department anyway, looks like it is designed for the regular centre bulge sump,

use one of these and go through the sump.

this is a welded setup rather than bolt on bits hencve shouldn't flex and keeps the rack at correct hight to avoid bump steer


or use one of these and have very bad bump steer

I fiitted the deep sump with the tube through on my Dart , what a pain in the ass, first problem i had, was the link was catching the sump because i'd fitted the motor on elephant ears and was in a slightly different position to stock, then it wouldn't hold prime because of the large lines, remote filter and constant minor leaks. In the end, i drilled the block, fitted a 1/2" internal pickup and conventional deep sump.
This was all before the internet , so it was all trial and error.
