Sure is but the reason to mount the tank low isn'tso much the frothing of oil, that WILL happen with a drysump even while running do tothe evacutaion of blow-by gas as well as oil in the scavenge stages(you count on tank design to takecar of this) but if the tank is mounted above thecrank level and you get oilleak back as the pump wears, you may endup in extreme cases with oil seeping past main seals or above piston rings and into cylinders (only on high capacity systems with a really high mounted tank. The biggest worry though is running the tank low at startup since all the oil is in the motor before the pump can pump it back into the tank in the firstfew seconds. My drysump could cy le all of the oil in the car in under 15seconds. It was a 30gpm system lol.
