Anyone out there install a dry sump system? I'm surveying plans for one. I found this so far:

pufferfish said:never seen anyone with one so i'm of no value to the question, but I have to wonder where you would even place the tank? I am fairly certain you need a high capacity tank to allow time and space for the oil to de-aerate. only place I can think to put it is where the battery sits now (obviously with a relocation kit), but that seems like a bad place to have a fairly high concentration of sloshing weight?

I am always up for an engineering challenge and even more so when it's not on my dime ;D come on over...and bring a credit card!

that 5.0 pan is for the old pushrod engines. I recognize that pan rail shape anywhere!DGRacing said:Here are some:

I saw they have one for 4.6 modular. I wonder if it would work? the 5.0 and 4.6 are a similar architecture, just not sure how similar?
