Default Dry sump oil for my 408.. Or traditional?

I should just ask the vendor I'm buying the engine from.

What would I need to make a brand new 408 a dry sump oiling system? Not a good idea? I'm thinking the windage of the oil flying around would help to further cool the bottom end of a boosted 408.

Oil pans? pumps and such?

if you have the 5k to spend on it and can do without your ac then go for it.

Neah... I don' think I'll have room for or need the AC.
