Default looking for gated baffle for YB sump

Hiya, I have an enlarged sump, but need the gated baffle for the sump. I already have a windage tray. How much and where can I get them?

The mountune is only a 4x4 one and is a brake surge tray, I have had proper baffles done before and they aint Ł175.

Thanks Mark for the info.

Tony, I sort of understand that you have been burnt before and I have been burnt by people in the UK before as well. If you would like to sell it seperately from Ebay PM a price. If not then, I understand.

Cheers,
Vic

Vic, RichPon (or is it RichardPon ) on here is breaking his Sapph which had a baffled sump.
I don't know if he still has it, might be worth a quick PM to him.

You could always speak to Glenn Hardy at GGR, they do brand new 2wd sumps for a good price . You could then get them to send this to Marco's man for modification?

I think I may do that as a LAST resort, cause I have a beautifully made ultra rare cast sump and want to use that.

Im amazed with the number of high hp cosworths with big winged sumps, that they arn't more freely available!

What does Harvey use ?

The Mountune one if you want a proper gated sump, but he is also experiencing the same sourcing issues and can't do this for a 2wd sump any more either .

What you REALLY want is one of these:





House point if you can guess what it is .

It's a GENUINE Grp A touring car magnesium sump .

Vic,
If you email Tony direct and ask how much he will take to end the auction and I will pay him for you, so he knows he is getting the money and you can Paypal me?

mmmm.. magnesium bling material.. bugger to work with!

I bought my cast sump from Stuart Walker. Very nice I'll post some pics if I have a chance.

That's very kind of you Mike. I just sent Tony a PM... and will wait for what he says.
