I'm interested to see that - I have a 3 QT accusump that I haven't installed yet - I wanted to see what my oil pressure was like first. I had my first track weekend with the oil pressure gauge and saw it dropping in the sweepers. To me that means some air was getting sucked in (unless there is another explanation for oil pressure dropping? Can oil pooling in the heads "block" the oil flow somehow and drop pressure?)

It stayed above 20 but it still dropped.

If it is from sucking air, then I wonder if a deeper sump can provide oil and prevent/postpone this.
