Building Dry Sump system Ok so I have a genIII 5.3l that I'm converting to dry sump.
I now can rebuild an LS engine with my eyes closed but I have no clue how a dry sump system works. Im trying to piece one together using the Ebay method so I can save myself the money and get the benefits from the dry sump (mostly clearance).
So far the parts i am watching are:
Remote oil filter
Dry Sump Tank
4 stage pump
Oil pan (im guessing i need 3 outlets for the pump and one inlet to go to the normal oil pump)
Lines
I gotta cooler already connected to the remote oil filter
Do I need anything else?? Someone free me from my dry sump ignorance
Thanks
