My conclusion: tell me if I’m wrong

I think that the problem was not caused by insufficient oil from the sump but rather blocked oil passages. I mention this in my previous video about the engine swap. See around minute 11:30. Threads of orange silicone sealant may have made their way into those little channels and holes that lubricate the crank. The extreme heat weakened the bolts and bang!

I was wondering about that; blockage rather than an issue with a high G turn. Brad Roberts posted some data a while back that led me to believe that the high G starvation issue is not as relevant to the Boxsters as it is to the rear engine models. I may have misunderstood though.

Great videos, thanks for posting them.
