Awesome! I had some oil starvation issues on certain autox courses so I looked into making a custom dry sump setup for my car but it was out of my price range and I wasn't sure that i could pull off building it properly so I'm going with an Accusump.

Started working on the dry sump tank, only have a fairly small area to work in so it the radius had to be rather small which isn't bad. I reluctantly cut up a Peterson tank to get some ideas, to be honest they are a very basic cheap tank. Back to square one. Even more reluctantly i cut up a "roush" sprint cup tank, we hit an all new ball game. What an amazing tank inside. So that is the base plans for the hyundai's tank.

That's cool. I can't wait to see pics and/or video of it moving under it's own power. smile.gif
