I have a nice dry sump tank form an Indy car that is very compact and is designed to sit behind the driver. This was built by Williams F1 for Doug Shierson’s Domino's Pizza Indy car team.  This would be great for a stream liner, lakester or rear engine roadster. $100 plus shipping.Tony

Was approached a few years ago to duplicate one of these for the v-8 powered series that used old Indy cars. The Limeys wanted $2500 for a replacement.  They're about the profile of driver's back down to butt and real shallow  (4-6")  good for a lakster/RE Modified Rdstr. Right tea seller?

The tank is 23 ˝” tall to the top of the tank and 26 ˝” to the top of the filler neck and 18”  wide at the widest point (middle) and 3 1/2" thick.

IB, you are correct in that this would be great for a lakester or rear engine roadster and were very expensive new.  I bought the car and spares from Doug when they switched over to Lola’s and when I sold the car, some of the spares didn’t go with it.  This was a spare that Doug and later I had for the car and I believe its new and has never been used.  Tony

Not trying to muck things up here BUT.....
Indy cars have an air/oil separator in their drysump pumps. This allows the use of a non-cylindrical tank.
Most basic drysump pumps do not have this feature, thus the need for a round dry sump tank.

SORRY Tony, I just felt some folks might need to know this. It is a great deal for the right person.
