Cheers Alan!!

Top end is now stable as I cut more out of the rear valence to let more air out. Seems very stable now at 140mph ;)

Glad to hear it was a relatively simple fix, think we are parked for the season until we come up with an oiling solution, just had a quote for a dry sump system of over $3,000 and would still need a lot of fabrication to fit. Maybe Mr Eales will be a bit less.

John Eales does have a nice looking dry sump kit. Most of the race engines I've seen in his shop seem to have them fitted.

Dont know aobut prices though ?
