Default oil pressure accumulators??

has anyone had any experience with these

Accusump oil pressure accumulators

I recently spun a bearing on a 4k mile old engine and think it was down to oil surge. I have now bought a arc sump and a oil cooler with remote filter would it be worth getting one of these as well?

I remember Power Engineering at Uxbridge advertising something similar a few years ago. Not sure if they ever got to actually market the device, though.

These are used a lot in drag racing to keep the engine oiled when the chutes hit and all the sump oil is at the front of the pan uncovering the pick up,
usualy in autos cause you can clutch a manual and kill the motor,
They do what its said they do. good point is you can efectively have the engine fully oiled befour you start it in the morning down side is you have to get under your bonnet to do it...the choice as they say is yours...
