[DeTomaso] Dry Sump discussion

[Carey McMahon]

I'm wondering what the problem is that you want to solve by fitting a dry sump? Is it better lubrication, more oil to cool with and reducing volume of oil that sits in the rocker covers? Or is it reducing center of gravity for better handling?

If this isn't a race car, then why bother? Better to fit alloy heads to lower weight at the top of the engine and leave the wet sump. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers
