As much as I like this Sump, some careful measuring on my set-up revealed it just won't fit my tube chassis. Don't want to re-engineer this part of the chassis, so I've decided to go with a standard shortened sump. This also allowed me to utilize (portions of) the Small Car engine mount - to relocate the mounting bar at the timing belt end of the engine. Since the SC mount tucks between the sump and exhaust (on either side), there's no room for a widened oil pan, at least not as wide as the Bug@5seed pan.
Maybe on the next project.....
