Sorry to be that guy that is going off of second hand info. If you wait long enough I might be able to provide some first hand experience

Well Matt I'm buying this month or the first of next so I can get the motor buttoned up and on the dyno so maybe I'll give you some first hand info.

I've been reading what I can and both companies seem to build quality stuff. Both are about the same distance from me one North and one South. Aviad has a long history with FE motors putting dry sump in Cobras and GT40s. Dailey is a step ahead with a billet pan (Aviad is starting to come out with them but none for my motor yet).

Do you have any first hand info from guys running Dailey in their off road stuff? I can't think of a more difficult environment for a scavenging system to work properly than in off road racing. You have crazy g forces in every direction.
