Default Oil Sprayers

Why do you want oil sprayers ? From what I know they are for fast race cars only and won't be of any use to a road car, I believe you cannot buy them for Volvos any longer except the 850 race car (although could be wrong)

Less you're using you car for race use sprayers aren't necessary and never seen them fitted to a commercial road car.


PS I've gotta ask why do you want lightened and balanced fly wheel? Organic Fast road Clutch plate (that won't survive road use) I'm assuming the head work is gas flowing ? (Don't even bother it's not worth the cost plus you need it redoing after a certain length of time. My Rangie (which is sadly no longer) had gasflowed and ported heads with large valve which had to be redone twice in a year. Is Nitrous Oxide road legal in GB ? I know it's insurance legal depending on who you're with but not sure about road legal. Bit like making a car with a jet engine fully legal just can't use it.

Found them!!! They're not even for road use but John Deere Uses them on thier 9.0L engines heres the site to read about them

I reckon that'd give reason to fit sprayers!!
