Dry Sump Oil System
Is it worth it to put a dry sump oil system on a street car?

No. Its expensive and only real benefit is on the track (Unless you are a big time street racer. And if that is the case you have more problems than oiling.) My 904 has a dry sump which real only allows the crank to spin free (Not slushing in oil when excelerating.) I believe there are some after market oil pans that can improve oil displacment on hard excel. Keeping the oil from pooling in the back of the pan. For street "I think" it's just more you have to manage.

And especially not in a BB or Hemi mopar that has very poor windage characterics because of the narrow Y-block.
