Having built a bunch of dry sump systems while working on vintage race cars, I'll basically second everything MV8 said. I'd put a thermostat in unless you're really conscientious about fully warming up before you run hard (and even then I'd still recommend it). If you're using it as a track car, I'd recommend an oil heater in the tank as well. A 2 gallon tank should be about right for that engine, and you want to mount it so the tank outlet to the pump is higher than the pump.
Just my $.02...

I order one the minute MV8 mention it like I said I had completely forgotten about it, I bought a Mishimoto one I saw on sale. I pretty much want to get get in it and go I know this isn't so realistic but I want to get as close to it as I can. I don't really expect to use it on the track mainly just some spirited street driving. On another note, after much much googling I found a setup that uses an oil thermostat that I can reference.
