With a 7/16" primary pickup at 70 psi you would need a whole crappin' bunch of
oil, Mayf.  Llike maybe thirty gallons! 
 
I know that with a broken oil filter seal you can run 7 quarts out of a hemi
in the length of a suburban driveway.
 
I think they're right Mayf,  you need to take some time off and drive into Las
Vegas for an evening or something.

>> Just for curiosity sake, just how much oil is actually pumped through a
motor say during a run of 5 miles at  some nominal speed? I know that the oil
pump in my wet sump bypasses a lot of oil so it mush have lots more capability
than actually needed    Anyone ever done an experiment where they hook up
their dry sump return oil to a separate tank and just see how much oil is
pumped per second? Or minute or?  Or is there a web site somewhere I might go
look for answers.  I have a project in mind where I want to pump oil through
the motor once only and I am trying to guess how big an oil tank might be
needed for a run of about 2 minutes plus some reserve.
