Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches California David Z - Dry Sump Questions

I know you were previously considering a dry sump lubrication setup for your 3.0, but abandoned the idea. I'd like to hear a little more about your research into dry sump on the Duratech, and why you ultimately gave up on it.

Basically it was going to be a PITA to install. Packaging is what kept me from installing it. The dry sump pump would have installed ok, but it was the sump tank that would have been too costly to fabricate a custom one that would fit. And most universal ones that I saw didn't have dimensions that would even be remotely possible to install in the bay. Some one told me to install it in the gove compartment, but I wasn't too sure if I wanted to do that.

If your interested in how the setup was going to work, drop me a email...
