Question External Oil Pump

Often times during the year I will go to the local circle track to watch the modifieds or the Busch East guys. All the engines in these cars have external oil pumps. They run off a belt outside the engine.

My question is, do any Cobra owners have their engines set up that way? What are the advantages and disadvantages of such a set up? To me it seems like a good way to take load off of the distributor gear. Any thoughts?

Bob
