Dry sump info

We are thinking about converting to a dry sump system on our 427/351W SPF MKII. Any recomendations?
 
Gary Armstrong at ARE (drysump.com) makes some great cast aluminum pans and is very helpful. You can often source barnes or other dry sump pumps on ebay at a significant discount.

Pack lots of cash!! Granted I was just using a stock low mileage LS1 engine, but I had more money in my oiling system than my engine :(
 
That sucks to hear. He was very accommodating with my pan that was first quality when received. My application required cutting the heck out of one of his pans and fabricating several pieces to put it back together. I don't have the equipment to tig it back together, so he offered to have me send it back to him and he welded it up for me, then milled the deck mounting surface back to flat then heat treated it again.

After reading that other thread, I would probably avoid those pans too.
