    Dry Sump on a VW Type 1?

    I'm considering going to a dry sump in my 5 car. I'd like to use the type that go into the stock pump location. I've seen two different pumps that fit this, one by CB Performance, and one by Bugpack. I like the simplicity of the CBP pump, but I'm not keen on the small gear on the scavange side, or the pressure side for that matter. I have seen very little feedback on the Bugpack unit.
    Any insight on this for my application or other options? I'm on a budget, so don't get carried away...
    Also, I need some directon on tank size. I've seen 12 qt tanks, but I'm not sure I need that kind of volume. Would a 6-8 qt or so tank work?

    Dailey Engineering. Yes they are more money but only true dry sump pump for a VW air cooled as far as I'm concerned.
