We used to do Solo SCCA racing with my '68 AMX and it was a blast. Learned how to steer with the power of the rear tires. I had the suspension so stiff that it would lift a front tire going into a hard turn. I actually loaned the car out to a buddy and he ran it for a couple of years. Again, it was a lot of fun!

If I remember correctly.... Al Larry built the engines for Moby Dick and he told me that it was due to those races they changed to the angled oil pump gear cover. I guess the axle hit it a little too hard and caused some oil pressure issues.

I was unaware that there were different covers.

Goes to show how observant I am. I'm sure I have both out in the shop.

I'm sure the added benefit of the angled casting is an improved flow without the 90 degree turn.

My latest racing adventure was another round of tarmac rallycross at Milan Dragway this last Saturday. Not AMC but still racing and a lot of fun. Legally driving a car as hard as you can,especially on drive pavement, is way cool.
