If you have the dry sump I would say yes ,You can pull more pan vac and make more power.

George:
Much easier to pre heat the oil and actually distribute the warmed oil before starting.

dreracecar:
True, but the HP drag of the pump plus the weight of the pump-tank-extra oil-lines negates most of the gain that makes the extra cost of it not so desirable.

tdietz:
You guys are way beyond me at this point.  We only bracket race with a vintage group in Pennsylvania.  We aren't worried about weight!
