Accusump/accumulator questions!
The Dart block has an oil port above the oil filter but it's only like 3/8", is anyone using this to plumb their accumulator? I think a -10 on a sandwich adapter might be a better option but what adapter is everyone using if not the block port? The block port can be seen in this photo.

Todd;
Moroso sells an oil filter adapter that solves this nicely. The port you are talking about is a factory machining drill access. Last edited by Chuck Gallagher; 01-07-2021 at 02:53 PM. |

Re: Accusump/accumulator questions!
I was guessing something like this...

My BBC dart block has a oil galley access at the top of the block in the rear to plumb an accumulator

Re: Accusump/accumulator questions!
Todd;
Depending on which filter you use, I was thinking of the Moroso P/N 23675 or 23676 adapter. If he is still working, I'd give Howard Marcelus a call at Moroso. Brett McFarland may have an answer also since he is familiar with the Dart BBC. |

Re: Accusump/accumulator questions!
I used the same one that Brett mentions. For me, there was no chance of getting fittings to fit on an oil filter adapter with headers and clutch linkage in the way. This was on a Dart Little M SBC.

Brett, My small block doesn't have that.

Re: Accusump/accumulator questions!
Chuck I like the #23676, just wasn't sure if it would clear the lip around the filter boss.
