True in theory but the HRM tests didn't show any significant BHP
improvement with oil- shedding coatings. As Dave will probably say-- go
dry sump for significant BHP gains.

Neil,
I would think that shedding heat and controlling foam are the most 
important items for the oiling system to accomplish. So then you are 
both right, in a sense, keep the engine together and more HP will be
made. (-:
