Bryan, if your gonna run a GOOD pump, like a Dailey you mentioned, then I'd personally put the tank in the rear of the car. It absolutely does not have to go in the front, as long as you have a nice oil pump involved. And it will move weight to the rear of the car at the same time. Doesn't have to be in the trunk either...there's room under the car. Far more room than what you have under your hood, ESPECIALLY if your going to go custom built through Stefs.
I'm also not sure that restricted push rods is your answer to this, along with a dry sump. Are you running a high volume oil pump? If so, that could be the issue. I'd bet you didn't drill holes in the lifter trays, for oil return either. The holes help keep the oil out of the area under the valve covers.
The dry sump will solve your oiling problems, if the entire oil distribution AND oil return process is done correctly.
