I guess I'll put in my 2 cents worth. A device called an "Oilamatic Pre Oiler" is out on the market now. You can find it on the Web at www.oilamatic.com. A friend had my mechanic put one in his airplane. It pressurizes the oil system before you start the engine, using a small electric oil pump. As someone said, most engine wear occurs during start up, so this device would greatly reduce or eliminate that wear. This would be a 337 process to get it approved for a Coupe. I plan to have one installed ne t annual. I understand they cost about $1000. (I run Aeroshell.)
