Default Wet or Dry

I am considering doing a LS7/T-56 swap into a 68-72 Chevelle. I am just beginning to look at the requirements for the oil pans but I am trying to figure out what I would do with the motor first. This would be my first LSx so it is a little new to me. I would be building the the bottom end and getting rid of some of the factory parts. If you could do it would you stick with the Dry sump or would you go wet and why? I was going to try to keep the factory crank and just replace rods and pistons.

If you are re using the factory LS7 crank, you might as well run the dry sump. Maybe just go with a better aftermarket pan.
