[Transmitter Man]

Does anyone know if these will fit our engine and the wedge?

I don't think so - serp / pre serp are different sumps I think

Only fit the engines with the very latest front non-dissy covers, as they are slightly longer, and have different oil pick up

OK guys.

Thanks for that.

I suppose the only other alternative route is a Pace or similar dry sump system which ran a very shallow cast ali sump pan.

Too expensive going there right now.

What did the Tuscan racers use?

All the Tuscan racers ran dry sumps.

What's wrong with the standard sump ?

I think it's been via Afghanistan & Iraq.

Gone porous?

[Transmitter Man]

No, but I think it's lifted a few drain covers in a past life.
