yeah i wanted to shave about an inch off the front shallow end.
I have a spare crap motor at home which i can take apart and check, and modify the sump from that.
I made a sump bash guard, and it copped a little whack on the weekend

I have a 1.3 sump on a 1.6 engine. I've never pulled a sump off before so am just wondering how much space is inside and can i modify the sump without affecting the oil/engine bits. I was thinking about "shaving" the sump to create more room for the diff pumpkin. |

where abouts do you wish to shave? up the front there may not be more than an inch or so room |

[gwankinsteve]BUMPSTOP EXTENSIONS!!![/gaywaginsteve] remember the 1.6 might have a longer swing in the crank and need more room |

I have thought about bumpstop extensions, but didn't want to lose the up travel. I guess i could try them first coz they'd be less work. I don't like things that stop things doing what they're supposed to do

just smack the sump in and turn it over by hand, it will make its own room

I had a look at mine, that I got off Royce and it had a cage over the bearing blocks that stuck out about an inch and there was no way the sump was going over it. Mind you the sump had the baffle in it not sure how much room if you remove that |
