Oil Accumulators
Oil Accumulators does anyone run one of these on their motors?

I figgure since i'm gonna be spending some money on a new motor build it may be worth it to protect my investment. If anyone has run one how did you plumb it? the only way i see that it can be done on a LS1 motor is to connect it where the brass plug is above the oil filter since thats the direct path to the main oil feed galley. Unless there is an adaptor like the one moroso makes for the gen1&2 SBC.

You can plumb in at the front of the motor (that's pre-oil filter) or put a tee where the oil pressure sending unit is...
I've often thought of using something like this. Jegs & Summit also used to sell a "pre-lube" system that ran about $400. This eliminated the need to manual opening and closing of the valve. I don't seem to be able to find this pre lube system online anymore.
I suppose you could wire in something like this

to control the opening and closing. But I think the pre lube system actually would delay the starter a few seconds until the pressure was up to a certain amount.

Here's what we use.... A&A Accumalator
If we can get 5 orders we can give you a price that is nearly half....

yeah, I was wondering the same thing. I guess by tapping off at the oil pressure switch up top, you dont have any header heat near lines, not to mention have the pressure switch in another postion so it won't break as easy. So what price can we get these for under a GP?
