Not a stupid question at all. CB's dry sump system only uses 1 pump. It has 2 sets of gears so an external pump isn't needed. Its also not all that expensive. The above is true and also you never have to worry about starving your bearings of oil. You also eliminate the need for a sump extension. With a dry sump you'll have a remote tank to hold your oil. CB's is something like 8 or 10 quarts and is baffled to eliminate foaming. I'm going to use this system on my T1 2276T street car.
