Using the E series sump will make this conversion soooooo much easier. it is a wonder that no one else ever thought of that idea, and just think, use the EF engine mount, WOW.

Good to see another approach and awaiting pictures. How are you planning on moving the oil pick up?

I was thinking running a DOHC engine using a dry sump system which could have allowed for E-series sump, although that could get expensive.

How good is the clearance on the from and rear mains?

What type of sump gasket did you use?

Lets see pics of the sump fitted.

How did you seal the side mains bolts that go through the side of the sump?

Cheers
