zetec oil sump
anyone know where I can get my sump modified. tiger's about £200 although new, and purpose built it seems like a load of money! This is my oil
at the moment

Cheaper Option
The sump in your picture looks like one from a Mondeo.
A shallower standard sump, which I use, is one from a 1.6 or 1.8 Escort Zetec engine. vintage 1992-95.

You could try Scholar they do a shortened sump, it's well baffled and is a bit cheaper than Tiger's
http://www.scholarengines.co.uk/Lowline%20sump.htm
and includes a shortened pickup.
I don't think that you will get away with an escort sump, as even that was too deep in my Cat.

Check to see if Tiger's sump includes a modified pickup and if it is baffled. I don't think it does. and Scolar (Just north of Stowmarket)
are about a similar distance from you as Tiger

tiger do modify the pickup included within the price. you simply have to send them the bit and then they'll send the sump and the correct
pickup down as one.

OIL PICKUP
Where did you find the metal oil pickup? It seems impossible to find a modified one without having te buy the expensive sump. Does somebody know the
ford part number of the metal version I can use?
cheers,
Desmo
