That is all decided by how much oil gets by all the leak points,combined with how much is trapped around the crank, in the heads,etc. So the answer is, there is no real set answer. For a vague idea, a stock buildup back in the day with a stock shortblock, stock pan, five quarts of 10w30, lived for me shifting a 440 over 6,000 rpm. But who knows how close I was to driving over the crankshaft.
Part two of his question was both pumps with a stock type oil pan.
With enough leaks in the system Both pumps are capable of sucking the pan dry. Or at least low enough that on decell, the pickup becomes uncovered. Still not a good situation.
