One I haven't come across here before.

With the location of the V8 in the FE I have to modify the sump... No biggie, but have had a passing thought about a dry sump system...

Not having any experience at all with this I thought I would ask people who may know. I had read some of the benefits, but for a car that is not going to be raced, dragged etc is it worth all of the extra effort.

Cheers

For the $$$$ it will cost to go Dry Sump, for a street engine unless you are planning to turn it over 7000 a standard type H/V pump will be just fine....There are benefits but more suited to high big Horsepower  or circuit racing  ...........FC427......
As I lay rubber down the street I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide please dear god protect my ride
