there is a thread here about it too, where they talk about their problems https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63723
Element and Phil are cool and all but remember, they themselves went dry sump before ls3 swapping their car a fews years back. IIRC their other car, the WRX is running a closed deck ej.
