Dry sump oil-tank placement. Im building a 1995 Camaro with a turbo-charged 3.5l push-rod v6. Im also running a 3-stage Dry-sump oiling system on this engine.
I would like to use space where the AC unit was for the dry-sump oil-tank. Got any good suggestions?

Well... I gave it some though, and Ive decided to move it to the front passenger side where the battery and water reservoir was mounted.
It does mean however that I will have to lose my air-to-air IC and replace it with a liquid-to-air intercooler to route the air pipes inside the engine bay.
Thats too bad. I had fabricated the IC bracket (slightly croocked) to accomdate a fan-shroud and two puller fans. Its a straight "bolt-on" piece that I designed to support the bumper-cover while replaceing the front absorber.

What are you using for a transmission? I thought the 3.5 engines had funky bell housings and weird engine mounts - unless you used the 3400 and bored it.
Looks like it will be interesting, good luck.

The shifter has a near similar mounting position through the floor as the T5 that came out of it.
