I was considering going dry sump since the car is a road race car for the street, but the reality is that it costs so damn much. The new engine (LS1) was cheap considering I built it myslef but it is still close to 5k after the computer and all, the trans was 1500 so we are getting up there. A dry sump is usually around 3k, which doesn't make sense to me. How can a dry sump system cost almost as much as the entire engine. Plus I don't think it will really help me much. I mean the car will see the track but in reality it will be on the street more often then not. I did however get a trick oil pan that has 4 way baffling in it so it will work well on the road course. The other limitation is that I can't mount the thing that much lower because the transaxle is the limiting factor. If it were a Hewland unit where the outputs are higher up on the box then I woudl have to go dry sump to mount the whole unit lower but the reality is that I can't go that low anyway.
