Dry sump oil systems

I've survived this long - waiting wouldn't really hurt I think. But seriously - would people actually get on board with this for a group buy if this became available?

Have you seen GTM's current group buy?
And not many people are going, "Yes, $6000, plus god knows how much to install for 15hp, and a bit extra cooling... Great return on investment..." You're going to be in a boat of very few.

Now take out the people not willing to wait for GTM, you're in a boat of one.
But sail on brother, I'd love to see a dry sump in a 370.

Yep - I'm the 'brother no-ne talks about and lives in the basement eating crayons, dry humping the family pet, and does weird things"...

Weird things like looking into dry sump systems. My boat will sail on

If you like to look at good looking pictures of product for our car, GTM is the place to go.

If you expect to actually get a part from them , good luck !
