How does the SBC cope with oil surge with the standard sump?

Does it absolutely need a dry or accu sump, or are these only really required for track work?

Don't know how they fair with dry sump. But I know how they track with an accusump and a wetty. It ain't good!!

I thought/hoped I could get away without an accusump - a trip round the local Tescos roundabout proved otherwise...

Much lower pressure (single figures)than I was happy with... didn't cause any issues other than me getting back on summitracing.com and then waiting for the appropriate bits to turn up..

Lucky then. You caught it.

Can anyone post a pic(s) of the factory recommended location for the oil tank and a good shot of the pipes?

If you are considering an A/S SBC vehicle, then for factory support and no surprises, I'd go (like me) with Factory tank, and connectors and A/S engine parts.

Looking like about 3k plus build costs at the moment.
