Why did you take offense to his question? It's a valid one...

I didn't take offense. It's a simple fact that these engines require a LOT of work to address oil starvation. The deep sump and baffle help but don't solve the problem. It's a design flaw of the engine and you live with it and if the engine goes it goes.

Ahhh I get your point. You are absolutely correct. I wish someone would make the 2 stage scavenge pump for bank 2, I would think every racer would install one and all of this accusump / deep pan nonsense would go away.
