>>>HAHAHA!!!   Well, I don't know if I have every sucked all the oil out of 
the pan either--I'm not claiming that I have.   I'm claiming that I've been 
told that it's possible, with extended high-rpm operation, i.e. Silver State etc.

In any case, there is no good reason for a high-volume or high-pressure pump 
in a 351C no matter what its application is, IMHO.
