Hey Brad,

If you install an electric steering pump (GT3..type?) perhaps you may have enough room to install pump for the dry sump..?

Or an electric pump for the dry sump...

Dry sump pumps need to be mounted as low as possible to scavenge the engine and pull oil from the remote tank

This is our GrandAm Nissan VQ35 engine on the dyno 2-3 years back..

This system in its mounting location did not work, we had to change to... this...
