Suggest trying different charge pressures. It will make a noticeable impact on the volume of oil in the accumulator. You will be able to see a difference varying charge pressure as little as 1 psi. Remember charge pressure is residual at full discharge. I think the Moroso has a 4" piston, so at 6 psi there is just over 75 lbs of force behind the piston after its bottomed out

With the accumulator at 20 psi the engine oil pressure should not get much below 20 psi before oil under pressure is transferred saving the engine, I hope.
As the oil fills the accumulator the pressure in the bladder increases allowing transfer of oil to engine above the 20 psi mark. Last edited by Larry Hill; 01-21-2024 at 08:42 PM. |

Moroso has a good video on their YouTube channel. That goes into how different air pressures in the accumulator affect how it works. They have a “test stand and show it in real time what’s what. I’d post a link but don’t know how to do that.
One thing nobody has mentioned here (or I missed it). Is in a stocker the way we are limited on oil pan selection (no huge deep pans) and limited on what we are allowed to do to them. And inside them. Getting 1-2 quarts out of the pan and into the accumulator. Keeps the oil lower in the sump. Which could help with windage. But at the same time that oil is still available and ready to go if needed. Verses just running a quart or two low and risking an engine failure. |

My thinking have a 3 quart tank, overfill pan 2 quarts, that would leave 1 quart low for the run. Now you have a 7 quart pan when and if needed. On a Hemi this would be nice
