For most this pan is more than sufficient. My car performs great with this piece. Dry sump is a bit extreme for most of us weekend warriors.

But again something is better than nothing! Let us know when you have a $1000 dry sump option that can bolted onto a street legal car. Lol!

LOL, the scavenging pump alone is a $1K piece on a dry sump system.

People complain about the Z06 dry sump because it is half-assed, for cost reasons obviously.

But I do agree that for most of us doing HPDE, Time-attack, etc the AM piece is good enough and dry sump is overkill. I'm glad I have it.
