Has anyone tried to dry sump the Aero BMW 4.8 V8? Found a few sites but wanted to know if anyone had actually done it? Also does anyone know which year/model the engine comes from?

Thanks.

This M5 seems to already use a dry sump:

Look at CJV8 he mentions Morgans.

He says:

"I know John Eales makes a dry sump for the BMW V8's used in the Morgan Aero 8.
Give him a ring on 01455 202 909."
