I'm building a 572 Engine with B-1 Heads,It has a Dual line oil system.
Not a Dry sump. Can I run a Vacuum Pump? Should I run a Vacuum pump. Or is a Vacuum Pump a Bad Idea with out a Dry Sump

A vac pump increases ring seal and removes moisture among other things and can add an easy 25hp, why wouldn't you

I would run a moroso three vane pump and if the engine is sealed up good it should have about 15 inches. We have used a lot of them and thats what we end up with.
