dry sump oil pan completed.
modified coolant bridge.
Turbos, dry sump pump, and alt.
drivers side hotside, with special ceramic coating.
passenger side hotside, again with special ceramic coating.
Custom short shifter mechanism.
New toy. Miller 350 TIG.
Fuel Cell to go into car.
-8 fuel rail, one of 2 Bosch 044 pumps, fuel filter, and adjustable FPR.
I am just needing to get the intake manifold completed which I have pieces being water jet cut for today. I will then be able to put that together and the rest will just be hose plumbing!
CANT WAIT!!!!

looks great, and already powerful 
is it hard to convert wet sump to dry sump? can't imagine how you'd do that.
just decrease the pan volume, place a tank elsewhere and an adittional pump for oil delivery and return?

you need a pump to pull the oil out of the pan, someway to get the oil back into the engine (pressurized), in my case I reused the factory oil pump. And yes you have to have a resevior to hold the oil, normally one that has on average 50% MORE volume than the factory engine took as you always pull alot more out of the engine than you put in. To give you an example, the factory pump puts out a tick over 20GPM of oil, my pump will PULL upto 90GPM of oil out of the sump. This creates vacuum inside the crankcase. Which is one of the main benifits. HOWEVER, when you pull more out than you put in you will airate the oil, so you need more volume for it to settle out back into oil before being picked up and put back into the engine. I have an air oil seperator on the pump which helps to alleviate that issue, but keep in mind doing this is NOT cheap.
To help some of you considering drysump.
Pump from dailey engineering, 3 port scavenging pump with NO pressure section. $2k
Custom billet crank pulley $1200.
Modifying the oil pan, I did it all myself, but if you have to have it done, plan on between $800-1500 for the pan.
Then you will also end up spending a real fortune on hose fittings, hoses, etc. Those pieces are NOT cheap.
The oil resevior will run anywhere from $200 to upwards of $1k if you have a fancy custom tank made. Which is one of the reasons I purchased the TIG, so I can make my own.
Now keep in mind though that the TIG I got has a retail value that I could have purchased a nice 928 for. Granted I did not pay retail for it as it had some shipping damage. 
I will be making my intake manifold hopefully out of plastic as it simply doesnt absorb heat like aluminum or metal does, and this will help keep my fuel rails cooler, and intake temps under check.
