How did you route the oil feed & drain? Do you think its one of the bad vortech bearing batches or a negative product of self-installation?

bummer... sorry t ohear abot your trouble mike...

maybe it's time to get a V-3 and not worry about oil starving issues or maybe it's a problem with the bearing/impeller setup?
