Re: REFLECTOR:V8 Vacuum systemWayne- what does your cooling system consist
of now? I have an adapter from canton racing that puts the oil filter on the
firewall, and I am running a B&M oil cooler that has -8 fittings already
brazed to it, will run -10 hose to and from everything.... are you thinking
of using a dry sump system now?

Hi Dennis,
Do you have anymore info on your dry sump oil pump? I'm planning a
separate cooling loop for the SVX. All the piping on my present system robs
about 15 - 20 pounds of oil pressure from the lube system.

How about gilmer pulleys? (Uses "tractor belts" with teeth). I've got
two gilmers, one for my dry sump oil system, another for the alternator.
Perfect alignment is required, but there's no slippage. IMHO, as good as
serpentine.

Serpentine belts are to V-Belts pretty much what alternators are to
generators IMO.
