SIZE OF THE OIL TANK

JUST  THOUGHTS
 what if you broke a ring or two
  should?
  the tank hold all the oil in the motor
  blow a head gasket
  hold all the water in the block
  if used for both?
  JUST THOUGHTS

  I KNOW STOP THINKING

requirement is for a 1 gallon oil puke.  I made mine closer to 2.25 and it really isn't that big.  10.25x4.25x12.

I run 6 quarts of oil and on the top half of the motor is there any more than a quarter of water and since I am not running a water pump I can't see getting more than a pint any way.  So I would guess in reality on a non blown motor only going to puke 5 quarts oil and a pint of water.  And with that a bigger chance the oil pan gets a hole and it goes down to the catch pan.  Just my newbie thoughts.  And yes I over thought it as well.

An injected motor will not pump out enough oil to worry about, A blown engine is a different story,but even that would reguire major damage and a lot of rpm. Most oildowns from the puke tank come from people not checking/draining the  tank and it overflows when it sees pressure
