have you done anything to stop oil surges?

It's not hard to do just means machining a new sump and finding places to mount pressure/scavenge pumps, new resovoir, and running oil lines around the engine. Would be cool designing one for this engine!
I have a few bits at work that are from a dry sump system off an impreza rally car, all i would need is an appropriate sump and some oil lines. already got a relocated battery in the boot, would be cool to add an oil resevoir in there too, and like dum-dum said, higher capacity of oil would hopefully mean no need for a cooler.
Im quite keen on the idea of dry sumping an xud now
