I would recommend going with a full kit like Mazworx or Ross. Reason being various pumps are specced for various stages of scavenge for instance, so mix and matching pieces, you need to be very careful of pumps and pump design

And this does not get into the pan design. In some cases, running a 2 stage scavenge or 3 stage actually does not fully or properly evacuate the crankcase. Remember, pumps and scavenge are designed in unison. So this makes it even more difficult to mix and match as items are simply NOT compatible regardless of it is from the same manufacturer.

Too many variables to be mix and matching especially with your limited knowledge on the topic as it stands.

There is about a 98% chance you do not need a dry sump. However, if you want a proper way to burn through several thousands, purchases a full kit. Save yourself the headache and blown engines.

It sounds simple on paper, but if you haven't built a VET yes, building a dry sump system should be at the bottom of your list as far as requirements. Get the engine down first. Figure out what tires you are running, your specs, everything. If you are on serious time attack aero (think close to unlimited) and 100 TW tires, then you will begin to see the need (at which point, tires are $1200 a set per event and you wont be worried about piecing together and saving money.........)
