I come from a land down under
About $300 from memory, mine is set up Dumb no "activation" as such and just sits there charged waiting for any drop in pressure then pumps it's load back into the Main gallery.

Sorry no pics but it's mounted on the rail under the intake (may not work for a LHD car though)

So you do not open it up before you start your car? It just sits charged all the time waiting for your engine to lose its oil pressure. Then and only then will it open up and dump in to the main galley.

It's open all the time.

I don't do the prelube thing at all.

The filters I use have an antidrainback valve so the second the pump turns you have flow and shortly after pressure.

You can get a solenoid valve and activate this on shut down and startup but I'm lazy ;)

I have mine for high G turns.

I have looked at them links a few times.. I acually want to order the fittings tonight from summit.. So my question is... does anyone have the part numbers for the fittings for the oil hose that replaces banjo one.. and also the part numbers for the fittings for the block... I like the idea of using the lower port and blocking the oil filter port... I dont want to order wrong ones ... as to why im asking..
Thanks Greg
