A few weeks ago Alex took Artemis out to get some data logs in preparation for race week, and on the third pull he noticed the oil pressure stopped building at 40lbs and then dropped to 12lbs. He shut the car off and coasted down the road, restarting it once to turn in the drive and noticed it said 28lbs of oil pressure. The car wasn't knocking or giving any clues to engine problems, other then lower then normal oil pressure. As soon as I got home, we changed the oil to see how bad it was. I'm sure you could guess how it looked by the video above, lol. It really wasn't too bad, but we weren't going to risk it, and boy am I glad we didn't!
Our buddies over at Michigan Motorsports hooked us up with some kings coated bearing and a new Melling high volume oil pump! We decided to put the Copo spring in the oil pump, which may be an issue to come, but now the car has all the oil pressure and made a successful trip to our annual holden meet!
Now time to get her to the track and see what she can do.
