I don't think so....it is a gravity drain IIRC and you have to have your drain lower than your charger for it to work

technically it would work because of the pressure from supply but my bet is its not designed to be filled with oil all the time or even pressureized (up to 60 psi).

So i would go with 5.0stanger and go with gravity drain
