I am building a 32 roadster with a LS 7 in it. It has some unique problems that had to be solved. I thought if someone else is thinking of doing this you can see how I addressed some of the issues.
The first one that came up was where to put a dry sump tank? I didn't want it to look like a race car, this car is going to be used for comfort and extended trips. I decided to build a phony firewall that would actually be a dry sump tank. It's 1" thick and holds 7 quarts. If you can look at the back side of the tank you can see the fittings and the filler neck which will go threw the original firewall and get filled threw the cowl vent I put in, also threw the cowl vent I will fill the master cylinder for the brakes and the master for the slave cylinder. It won't be used for vent anymore it will be sealed off from the inside of the car. The photo's aren't in order, I hope it makes sense to you. I will post motor mounts next.
