Default Kostecki Dry Sump?

Has anyone heard of this Australian firm: Kostecki Engine Center ?

They list a bunch of LS1 stuff including this dry sump with internal 3 stage pump (allow A/C) and this cam gear:

I'm an Aussie and I know that they turn out some nice kit, have a look at this site also: Harrop.com.au they also do a dry sump set up and their stuff is top class and is used by many race teams over here in Oz.

Good luck.

Wait a second the brake booster is on the wrong side












j/k

Looks sweet. I have been thinking of going dry sump for a while now. It is kinda pricey though.

The wrong side booster pic is of an intake with 8 butterflys in a native country Monaro (GTO).

I wonder if it will fit a C5 or C6...

I have personally experienced a pre-production version of the 8 throttle body manifold and it is sweet. remember though that you need to tune in speed density mode to run this puppy, down in Oz it is quite common to bin the Maf.

With a big cam on a tight LCA the 8 throttle body will give excellent idle quality and instantaneous throttle response.
