Separating The Dry Sump Tanks
Is it possible to separate the LS 3 dry sump tanks from each other. Actually; already have, but wanted to know if I can relocate the secondary tank and just re-plumb the lower fitting and extend the upper connection to the main tank.
Thanks,

From a functional standpoint I imagine you can separate them if you can be sure the relationship between the two tanks doesn't change. Side tank height in relationship to the main tank, oil flow into and out of the side tank stays the same which means you may have to increase the tubing and connector diameters to the keep the flow the same.
