You're welcome!

The pump can only be reversed in the new design I am currently working on. I'll post some pics soon. This new design includes a completely new pump and completely new case.

I suppose a way around the pump issue would be to purchase a reliable external pump - for example one designed for turbo oil scavenging - and carefully plumb it so the oil gallies are filled properly. BTW, Tilton engineering makes a good one.
