External Feed OMP
Has anyone done an external feed oil conversion for the OMP? i remember seeing a write up a while ago but i can't seem to find it. I'm considering doin it over the winter, jus thought if someone else else did it they might be able to gimme a bit of an idea.

it's not a pump; it's a spacer. It will use your stock pump, but make it draw oil from an extra reservoir. It's possible to do it easier, but this system is probable the best.

I was very close to it, but not yet. I'm trying to figure out a less expensive way. These things have been done with NSU pumps long before RX-7 engines even excisted, and they didn't need a spacer. Just block of the intake hole o the pump and make a connection on the other side. Yet I'm a bit nervous of experimenting with this issue, as doing it wrong might **** up the engine.
