V-Clamp 9in Dry Sump Tank

The Peterson Fluid V-Clamp 9-inch Dry Sump Tank is a stainless steel oil reservoir bracket system designed for high-performance engine builds requiring external oil storage. Built by Peterson Fluid, a manufacturer with extensive experience in racing and high-performance cooling systems, this clamp-on mount secures 9-inch outer diameter oil tanks to vehicle chassis with a robust mechanical connection. The V-clamp design distributes load evenly across the tank perimeter, minimizing vibration transfer and reducing stress concentration at mounting points—critical for vehicles that operate under sustained high RPM or frequent acceleration cycles.

The bracket is fabricated from stainless steel in natural finish, offering corrosion resistance suited to engine bay environments, marine applications, or off-road use where salt spray or high-humidity exposure is a concern. At 1.23 lbs and measuring 3 x 3 x 10 inches, the assembly maintains a compact footprint while providing the structural rigidity required for secure tank mounting on racing platforms, performance street vehicles, or custom fabrication projects. The universal design accommodates Peterson's full line of 9-inch diameter dry sump reservoirs, making it compatible with various tank capacities and configurations in the same diameter range.

This mounting bracket is essential for builders working with external dry sump systems where tank position and retention are non-negotiable. Whether integrating a custom oil cooling strategy into a track car, high-output street engine, or specialty vehicle platform, the V-Clamp bracket provides a proven, repeatable mounting solution that isolates the reservoir from engine vibration and thermal stress. Stainless construction ensures long service life even in demanding environments where standard steel would degrade.

Peterson Fluid components are widely used in racing and high-performance applications where reliability and precision are non-negotiable. This bracket represents a straightforward, engineered solution to a specific problem: secure mounting of external oil tanks in applications where OEM mounting points are unavailable or inadequate.
