Can the pumps be wired to turn on, with the ignition? Does it matter that they might be partially dry to start with?
With a pump, does that mean the drain/sump tank, is not needed?

Most people on here run the Turbowerx pump which is about $1000US, there's an Australian Company Aeroflow selling a AF49-1200 which is about $200AUD but cant find any reviews on it. Apparently the Turbowerx can be run dry but the instructions Aeroflow say you can't.
I am still going to run a drain/sump tank.

Now my new water pump for the intercooler is wired with the oil scavenge pump together with ignition on based on that success.

Interested to see this set up, what size lines are you running, I think 10AN would be too big, thinking 6 from the catch tank to the pump and back to the breather.
where are you mounting the AW radiator?
