Quick question - Need to get a Dry sump tank for a LS2 engine.

How much oil does engine need (as part of a dry sump system).

Following on from above question, how big a capacity dry sump tank do I need to achieve the necessary oil (70%) de-aeriation (30%) (while engine running).

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I've herd of anywhere from 8-12 litres of oil, but the more the better I suppose. 911's use 14 Litres if I remember right..
