Good day Dutchy-what are you building now?I am using an Autocraft motor in my Drag Car and have worked out where everything goes-in fact it was on
here that I was given the correct layout.I will be away for a couple of days from tomorrow-so if you haven't got it worked out when I get home-I will
call you and have a chat.

The lay-out is straight forward,
but the oil filling up the engine is most likely the tank is too high.
How many stages do you have?
Provided the oil level does not get to the barrels and cause hydraulic-ing,
the fact that the scavvenge stage/s are larger will correct the problem on start up.
If the oil level in the engine does settle above the barrels,
then the tank needs tbe lowered.
