It might be an idea to leave your sump alone and buy a high energy or JPC sump. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thanks 4 that mate i no u can buy one but i would rather build then buy i am not a chequebook racer. so i just need to no if anyone has built there own? cheers

Ive seen some plans for various ones, but it depends on what your doing with the car. Windage trays, baffles, crank scraper and then testing it in the field can be a bit hit and miss as its not something u wanna find out that its not working as planned, when your engine is at stake.

Yea I always thought of a chequebook racer as someone who signs the cheque at the end of the week at the shop thats doing the work.. If you are doing the work yourself then whats the problem with buying the parts yourself.. How are you going to match thousands of dollars worth of R&D on the many performance options out there.
