Was that a standard blacktop sump and did you have any height issues?

I had to chop my Blacktop sump, I don't think it would have fitted a stand book car, but mines got an inch added to the engine bay so it cleared with 5-8mm.

Exactly the same as I did with mine Dan, haven't had mine running yet but should be ok I hope. Have you had any problems with the amount of oil in the system Dan?





Look at my build diary link below for how to do it.
