Oil Starvation

[Rwc94303]

I've read this thread several times over the weeks and haven't seen the following idea suggested so I'll mention it for your consideration and comment.

Two scavenge pumps bring oil back to the sump from right and left cylinder heads. This oil is mixed with air to some degree and passes through a swirl pot or air/oil separator before dumping into the sump. The air/oil separator dumps are outside the baffle surrounding the engine's pressure pump inlet. To re-plumb these dumps inside the baffle would direct that quantity of oil to the pressure pump inlet. Depending on the effectiveness of the air/oil separators this may allow entry of somewhat aerated oil to the baffle interior, and then to the pressure pump and engine. By directing the flow of this oil against the interior side of the baffle (splashing action breaking up bubbles), further de-aeration could be effected allowing even better quality oil flowing to the pressure pump.

To a guy who's been road racing dry-sumped cars for 30+ years, this seems a no-brainer. Who's actually tried this and knows it's a bad idea with sad documented results? For all the writers on this thread surely someone will find this worthy of an experiment.

Please, your thoughts or better, your experience?
