    Electric Oil pumps?

    Pro stock 1755 with a Electric Oil pump, Ive never heard of this any one? Thanx Mike

    Would seem a bit unorthodox as a "Pro stock 1755" sounds like a drag bike that wouldn't have a charging system or a battery....

      I just read about one .Record Holder .! Why would it NOT have a BATTERY?? You think he is running a magneto?

        I have no idea. Maybe a drag motor guy will explain it to us. This be a drag bike motor......No starter clutch,rotor,or stator,

          Drag bike and some vintage road race bikes use small batteries that have enough juice to just get them thru the race and are then re-charged in the pits. I think it's called a "total loss" electrical system.

                Many drag bikes use a pair of cordless power tool batteries to run the ignition and the electronics. They snap on and are replaced each round with freshly charged ones. The Vacuum pump, or sometimes 2 improves ring seal and can add up to 10% horsepower.
