Scooby Oil Sump info

[Bug@5speed(US)]

To all,
Alot of folks have shown interest in persuing subaru EJ conversions. Given the interest, I have been working with Martin to get info and see if we can offer the Bug@5Speed Oil Sump here in the states.

I have included some info and pics,
Enjoy
Alex

Details:
-The sump is sandcasted like all our other parts.
-The capacity of oil is 4,25 litres (that´s only 0,25 less than original). If you shorten an original sump you loose about a 1 litre.
-It is very stabile (you can put a hydraulic lifter under it and lift the car), so nothing happens if the car is low and the sump hits the floor). If you have the original sump, that´s virtually impossible.
-The cooling properties are much better than with the original one. Water temperature is reduced by about 10 degrees Celsius, if you switch from original to the bug@5Speed sump.
-The pick-up tube inside the sump must be modified (shortened). But that´s no big deal. Anyone who does such a project will easily handle this task.
-The original dipstick can be used, but must be shortened a little.

Price to follow.

Wanted to update this thread with some new pics with our scooby sump mounted on a car.

First the test car, which is Martin's personal daily driver.


Pic1- Here is a shot from the rear of the vehicle. As you can see our sump provides ample clearance and does not protrude beyond the exhaust header.



Pic2- Side View


Pic3- Side View (Close-Up)


Pic4- Other side View.


I hope this helps clarify any issues on the sump and how it looks on a car.

But if you have questions feel free to contact me.
