That is exactly the kind of info I'm looking for!  I don't know why I

Thanks Paul.

?The root cause is using the engine outside the parameters the 
?designers catered for.  Is it 'just' a case of baffling the 
?sump to create a number of chambers, with only small holes 
?between them to increase the time it takes for all the oil to 
?end up at one end (or side) of the pan under high G forces?

?This Google search lists lots of sites that discuss this, the 
?3rd one down being for a Rover V8.
