You're exactly right.  We are building a small sump tank that will receive the oil from Tracy's PRSU, and the turbo, and then it pumps back to the engine.  Bob's really good with dry sump systems, so we're pretty confident that this will be a good fix.  There will be a lot of oil in this system considering the size of the cooler, twin filters, sump tank, and the plumbing.  Should make w/b interesting.

Greg,

She wanted a backseat so she would have space to put her shopping bags.  Go figure!

I have a question concerning the placement of your turbo.  It looks like it will be lower than the oil sump.  Are you planning on using a pump to get the oil back to the sump?  Tom Parkes had trouble with the drain on his turbo 3-rotor Lancair ES and had to install a secondary pump.  Thought I would ask...

Greg,

Excellent choice on airframes.  The Legacy would have been my first choice, but I was out-voted by the wife who wanted a 4-place.  Have you been following the LML thread concerning insurance?  I'm insured with AIG but they have gotten much tougher on who they will insure beginning in 2009.  I go through Skysmith Insurance agency so they're not tied to AIG, but AIG had the best quote.

Hi Greg,

Nice setup.  What type Lancair is that going into?  What model turbo did you use? 

Mark S.
Lancair ES/20B n/a
