Nova Honda CB1100XX Blackbird Dry Sump Kit

<< back to products

The kit has been designed to overcome two major problems encountered when fitting motorcycle engines into cars or sidecars.

The first one being to prevent the loss of oil pressure caused by the oil not being  available at the oil pressure pump due to the effects of centrifugal force which does not affect a solo motorcycle in the same way.  

The second beneficial effect of  fitting a dry sump is to reduce the overall height of the engine and so ensure minimum ground clearance and lower centre of gravity.  This can be as much as 3" in some cases.    Our dry sump kit comprises of the following parts:

 

Dry Sump Pan - This is machined from a billet of high tensile aluminium supplied with JIC fittings to connect to oil lines (not supplied).    The oil pressure relief valve is modified and moved from the sump to the customers supplied oil tank.  The modifications are carried out to customers own pressure relief valve and details of the tank installation will be supplied.   Both the sump pan and ignition cover have a gold anodised finish.  A new Oil strainer connector is supplied and fits in the standard position.

 

Ignition/scavenge pump drive cover - This replaces the standard Honda ignition cover and incorporates mounting for the ignition and for the gear driven scavenge pump (supplied at additional cost).

 

Filter Body - This is mounted directly to the scavenge pump and contains a filter for each pump chamber to protect the pump in the event of particles passing down the oil lines.   Can be taken out and cleaned in situ.

 

Pump Drive Gear - This is fitted by Nova to the customers supplied ignition trigger and drives the scavenge pump.

 

Oil Scavenge Pump - The C6 2 x 10L scavenge pump can be purchased from Pace Products, Homefield Road, Haverhill, Suffolk, CB9 8QP - Tel: 01440 760960.   We can supply this fitted to the ignition cover. 

 

Pace Products also manufacture oil tanks suitable for use with our dry sump kit.
