    I've googled and searched here with no luck, unless I was building a boat or an old bike....

    who makes a 12v scavenger pump for cars? I don't know the intended use, I was just asked to try and find out who makes them and how available they are.

    any thoughts? DO they make dif. capacities?

    Any info on how they work?

    thanks

    Do you want to evacuate the crankcase? to keep rings seated/ lower the blowby?

  4. Most turbo,s I,ve seen are fed oil pressure from a gallery then just have a dump back into the pan.....

    They usually just drain with gravity, pressure is applied to the other end so it's not a problem until you shut er down.

    The turbo is at the back of the car well away from the pan.

    Road racers & NASCAR would be my bets if I had to look, but I've got no experience with them. Have seen 'em for differentials to run the gear oil to a cooler & back, but wouldn't even know where to begin looking....

    ...I'm no help, I guess I'll leave now. ;)

    EDIT: Need to type quicker, looks like dehudso has a lead!
