Afternoon All,

I've had my Pinto sump modified and as you can see the guy who did it painted the finished sump inside and out with red oxide primer. I am assuming that it would be better to remove all traces of paint and leave the inside bare metal to avoid contaminating the oil.

Am I right in my assumpstion???

Cheers

Nick

personally i'd break out the nitromors on it to be on the safe side

I was considering having it shot blasted, but nitromors might do just as well!

cheers Staple

shot blasting costs money, everyone has nitromors about

have you had the pickup modded too? if so, got any pictures? i wanna work out how best to do it

I see that no wings have been added, is this because the extra capacity will be in an external cooler? I hope so cus' this is how I want to do it!! ( boffins please advise if this is a no no!)

this is how i plan to mod my sump thanks to mark allanson

Gee shucks.....

The capacity has been maintained by extending the mod the length of the sump. I am not planning to fit an oil cooler at the moment.

The pick up has been modded to match, but I haven't got any pics here at the moment - will post some in my archive shortly.

what about the paint though????
