ZL1 LT4 Wet Sump Good for Track days?
Whose tracking their ZL1? Has anyone ever had loss of oil pressure or oil starvation from sustained cornering, G's, and oil slosh in the pan? My assumption is that for 99.9% of us the wet sump is adequate. Am I correct?

I have never had any pressure issues and I would like to think I track mine pretty hard, the oil pan holds 11qts of oil so it has a good amount. Though I still wish it was a dry sump system for the cool racecar factor.
I think the only oil pressure issues we see is when the oil pumps crack in half.

Really no reason to post same question in two areas.

I put the question in the ZL1 section before noticing this subforum. This area seemed more appropriate. Oddly enough, there were more responses in the other forum. Thank you all for sharing your experiences. Please keep them coming. |

No issues, car was designed to track hard and be driven home. Its been out 4 years, im sure you would have heard of issues by now.
