Gday mate,
Yes, We do offer a Dry Sump for 5.0L.
It is a 3 stage system, 2x Internal Pick-ups, also has a removable bolt-in Mesh windage tray.
This pan is $750 inc. GST.

We also do a wet sump version that may suit your application, depending on what you prefer Wet/Dry.
I had a look at your Burnout Vid, What sump are you running at the moment?

Cheers
Ben

Hey Ben, cheers for the reply.

currently im running a High energy Pro eliminator (the one with the diamond mesh) which is half my problem,

Id love to stay wet sump if i can, one that would be suited for burnouts.

Yeh, I know the pan, We built it, We build all the High Energy stuff (except the Taiwanese junk that have just landed...Quality Issues)
Normally I would ask how much power the car is making but after seeing your video I can tell you right now that the pan you're running isn't good enough, Obviously... Especially when the car is doing 8500rpm spinning in circles, I'm quite surprised you have hurt the engine yet... or have you?
Anyways, There is a wet sump option, which will be more expensive than a dry sump by itself but once you add in lines, pumps and tank etc. for the dry sump set up it is much cheaper.
If you want to get rid of all Oil related problems (surging, cavitation etc.) I would recommend our Circuit Comp pan, it is a Race style pan with quite complex Internals, gate box, directional baffles, it's built for optimum oil control under acceleration, braking, turning etc. It also has a larger ear (Oil reservoir) 9ltr capacity and full removable bolt-in mesh windage tray. The pick-up is also moved to the optimum location. This pan is $990.

There is also another pan that is even more complex, designed for commodore cup racing. This pan is $1390. This pan is probably over the top for your requirements.

Cheers

Tim,
Yes we do a Setup for V6's into Live Axle Hilux, but we doubt a wet sump would work given the steep angles and high revs for long periods. We seriously suggest a dry sump.
We could design a pan for this application if required.

Mondo,
If thats what you want, we can build it for you. Do you want a price?

Dirt Drifter,
We don't make brackets to sell, but making them wouldn't be a problem.

Cheers
Ben

[RVK 355]

Yea mate, a price would be appreciated.

cheers

Hey guys, just abit of a update, i ended up getting a dry sump pan through ASR, dry sump has been all set up and works a treat, now my bearings stay inside the motor and not inside the oil filter.

Nice work there Mondo, glad to hear she held together after coping a hiding like that.

cudos to ASR for the sump and finally letting RVK355 do a burnout comp without hurting his bearings
