“When we put the 4.2L Maserati V-8 in the 500 C Kurtis chassis of Arciero’s to go to Indy, we had to convert it from wet sump to dry sump according to the USAC rules. We didn’t put a big enough scavenge pump on it and it was bailing oil out of the rear main.

(The Maserati had another local racer who made a name for himself racing a Corvette (besides Gurney): Bob Bondurant.) View Related Article
