Like I said I want plenty of room to grow. Spinning a Whipple up high isnt unusual I will be limited as to the size of the pulley I can run which will keep it under 10 psi for sure but I wont need that much pressure anyway.
The dry sump is pretty critical for high rpm. 1. It will reduce windage to basically nothing 2. It will allow me to use lower tension rings since it will pull a large vacuum which has the added benefit of reducing friction. 3. Consistent oil supply will be absolutely essential and a dry sump will provide that. Plus it will help with clearances since the pan is about 1.5" thick.
I primarily will be drag racing but I know I will want to get into road courses as well.

Whoever said putting money into cars made sense anyway? Lol
