Figured I’d get a poll going because I’m on the fence on what I should do. Doing a build on my 2011 GS. Originally was a stick shift car so it came with the drysump set up. Replacing it with a built auto. I wanna stay stock stroke (3.622) and only drysump crank that is stock stroke is either to buy another forged stock GS crank or a dragonslayer. On the fence if the drysump is worth it for what I’m doing with the car. Let’s hear your thoughts! Car will will be getting a blower and be used mostly for street pulls with some 1/4 racing - Eric

If you are just doing street driving, and straight line stuff, do whatever is cheaper/easier for you.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinkin. Just wanted to hear from anyone who has been in the same position and see what makes sense to do.

Another option is wetsump with an accumulator for added volume and safety. Its also nice to be able to pre-lube the motor if its been sitting.

If you are using the car mainly for street pulls & track drag racing, the dry sump is not needed

I used one in a race car where dry sump wasn't allowed, i used a manual valve though (1/4 turn).

There would never be a time I would pick wet sump over dry ever, for any reason. That said I "use" my cars.

With that said you would keep the factory DS? Didn’t quite get what you ment!

Yes dry sump is better, but for the added cost for just a street car that seems a few 1/4 mile pulls? I don't know if I would pay more than a few hundred extra for the dry sump.

already have the tank and lines... when ii sold old motor ii sold it with pan and oil pump. It was originally a stick GS so came DS. Car will see a lot of abuse and track time. Prolly only til the 1/8 because local tracks enforce NHRA rules strictly.
