Anyone running zetec turbo in your mk3/4 escort with dry sump set up or external pump
As title, I have bought one of 'laceys' external pump set up's but the pump is fouling my anti-roll bar. Has anyone fitted any others or know of any fitted to a mk3/4 escort with a zetec turbo ? I wanted to go for 450ish bhp but if I can't find a way i'll have to stick around the 400bhp mark. Any help would be appreciated.

It use two threads in the black top upper sump to mount it. My alternator sits above where the pump needs to be and theres def no way of raising where the pump can sit.
