NA or Forced Induction? street or race? make sure you have leave plenty of clearance for the oil pickup, seen alot of sumps get sucked in a little, which starved the motor and engine died. i'm running a Moroso 4-vane pump on my combo, very simple setup, any excess oil gets sent directly to a tank behind the tyres.
