[DeTomaso] Dry Sump

Dear Michael,

 

 

                       That is a very good question.   I was told by Dennis
Quella that in this tube frame race car, he wishes that he had planned ahead
and executed a lowered mounting of the engine and ZF.   I am aware of one
dry sump engine done by Quella for a Texas Pantera owner that was not
lowered.  

 

                       A dry sump and lowering the drivetrain would
certainly be getting very serious with expense, center of gravity and
handling.

 

                        I suspect that no one has gone that far, but I hope
I am wrong.

 

 

                                     Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles

Has anyone installed a dry sump oul system AND lowered the engine?
