Nice set up. So the oil pick up is in the sump 4 inch by 20 inch sump also? Thinking about doing this to a toyota engine and wondering if im able to dry sump a toyota engine.
You can do what I have done with any engine. It's not real dry sump, more like a "poor man's dry sump" as it uses the engine oil pump, not an external dry sump pump.
The engine uses regular antifreeze. It's just that I use a Setrab oil cooler as a radiator. They are very efficient, so I can get away with a smaller size.
lucky you have the 1.3, i have the 1.0 3cyl...lol

@Super79CamaroZ28 I started out with the 1.0L engine. It's easy to swap it out for the 1.3. The engines are cheap and plentiful...
