Oil pump capacity, does anyone have any data on how much oil is output per revolution of engine? V8 engine. I'm going to dry sump mine and will make a pump so any info greatly welcome.

Surely a relief valve will take care of any excess. Better to determine how much volume you need in the first place and aim a bit higher. Look at chevy ls pumps or sbc if you want to be safely in the ball park.

Ok thanks, I'm talking about the ajp v8. I will of course size slightly over but it would be good to know what the minimum requirement is. Thanks
