Thanks Ron! We got a pretty good handle on this dry sump system.. make sure you get a LS9 oil pump on your LS7.. it produces greater volume and higher system oil pressure

Great looking work there Cris, I always enjoy reading your project threads.

Where can I get some of those line clamps I see on the brake and fuel lines?

Machine shop just finished these pcs...

Dry sump oil tank distribution block it feeds oil to engine, it holds mesh filter, oil drain, & will be able to mount oil temp sensor.. & a few fittings to weld 3/4 stainless tubing..

Plus 1/2 barb fitting to weld to 3/8 tubing for the back of the intake for booster vaccum..

And here is the idea of where it will be mounted..

Cris who makes that black hose and those fittings and is it a Teflon inner or CPE? Nice plumbing work too BTW.

Cris@JCG 06-29-2011 08:38 AM

WE are using XRP fittings.. they have a great assortment fitting available.. The hose you see in the pic is not the one we are using.. We will be changing it over to XR-31 hose that has a flat wound internal support coil.. That hose will be used for the dry sump & oil cooler lines..
