Solution for Silicone in the Oil Pickup by Killer B Motorsport - Beta Testers Needed

The FA24 engines have a well-documented history of silicone collection in the oil pickup. Many have pulled the oil pan to inspect and remove this material to assure oil flow is free flowing and unrestricted. Here are a few examples...







The goal of this product is to prevent large pieces of silicone from blocking the oil pickup's internal filter screen. The Killer B Motorsport Oil Pickup Pre-Filter is designed to prevent mass accumulation of silicone in the direct path of oil flow.

- Massive Screen Area to Prevent Restricted Flow.
- Textured Outer Surface to Reduce Silicone Cling at Oil Changes
- Easy Install with Positive Locking Tabs



Bench testing completed and we are a few weeks into alpha testing on our shop mule at this point. Testing has been uneventful, regardless of the abuse we've thrown at it. This pic was not 'testing' but give a good visual of flow through the mesh...



With a solution-based product, we provide testing opportunities for enthusiasts as well as shops. If this is something you have interest in, please shoot us a PM.

In exchange for a free prototype product to test, we are looking for individuals that are capable of installing a product like this (dropping the reinstalling the oil pan), drive their car a lot, and/or regularly spend time on track, and can do a follow-up inspection at the next OCI.
