The 427GT came with a dry sump.

The 427GT engine was an extension of the 427MR. These were found only in GT-40s and had lots of aluminum which replaced cast iron components. The oiling system was a dry sump. A heap of fun technical documentation (xeroxes of xeroxes) is available through www.sae.org, but I forget the "technical paper" numbers right now.
