What is the recommended wet sump oiling system for a big block Chevy for road racing?
Thanks,
Rex

I believe the old Chevy Power Manuals produced by GM back in the 70s had recommendations for the type of pan to run. If you can dig one of those up on the net you might find what you are looking for. Other than that Milodon makes a wet sump pan with trap door baffles for road racing applications (http://www.milodon.com/oil-pans/road-race-oil-pans.asp).

I recommend THAT one..............with an Accusump! I would always recommend a dry sump if you can afford it, and if your sanctioning organization allows it.
