I blew a motor from oil starvation. Is it okay to run 1-2extra quarts of oil in the crank? Is there another soultion thats inexpensive?

 

no you do not want to run extra oil in the motor, it can damage it.
Problem: since you sad on a road cours i am assuming that your oil sloshed around in the oil pan preventing the oil pump from sending oil to rest of the motor
Solution: you need to get a baffed racing oil pan i believe moroso has one, and i know that mugen has one. do a search for racing or baffled oil pans.

 

I forgot to mention its a sohc si. I didnt think there was a aftermarket oil pan available for this motor?

 

You might have to get one custom made, i think I am going to have to do this as well...

 

thanks corey, That sucks though I'm a poor bitch. What would I tell the people what I need w/o specs from someone thats done it before?

 

check out http://www.opmmotorsports.com. They build many race preped honda's, im sure they can figure something out.. If you can't afford your car to be broken down for about 2 weeks for you to send the pan and get work done, you might have to buy another from a junkyard and send it out..

 

here you go i found you an oil pan, here is the link.

hope this helps, scroll down it is closer to the bottom.

 

thanks ill start with those

 

Its not baffled though.. Thats what you need, a baffled pan to keep the oil from slushing to one side of the motor.. Just because you have MORE oil, it isn't going to stop this from happening..

 

I would go with a stock pan from a junk yard and have the baffles put in it....probably very cheap to do.
