I use Millers CTV. Oil was not the issue it was lack of cooling. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Perhaps related to this? See Sprockets posts about heat dissipation. I think he may just have a point.

no way the oil will get too hot, we have an oil temp on the Don, and it never moves off the stop |

I would be looking at the coolant flow around No. 4. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
