So I got some Precision t7500 parts for real cheap, and now all I need is a heatsink and RAM. My first question is does the board support standard LGA 1366 coolers or do I need the one dell used in it? My second question is can I use non-ecc RAM in this? If so, how much, and in what memory configuration? Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

If the chipset is the 5520 as Dells site says I would assume yes when it comes to cpu cooling, Non ecc ram should be fine as well. Now what ram depends on the actual CPU chip. Cant tell from what your have told us.
I have a Xeon E5520.
all non registered works in it, you'll need the propreitary dell heatsink
I've had one once before
the maximum amount of ram you can use is 24GB of ram, or 4GB modules
