its not really needed for a road car, but why skimp on something as simple as that if your after building a decent 550bhp engine and spending quite a few pounds to do it anyway.
its not just to aid oil surge etc on tracks, but it will also allow a larger volume of oil to be contained, which in a knock on effect will take longer to get to really high temperatures, which is a handy thing when the engine may be working hard to give the power figures your after.

i bought my first one from Ebay,it had the all important mountune gated bit in the middle of it,then the diff cae loose and fooked it up, so i bought one off Pete,think its one of Mike R sumps,then i put the gated bit in that one.
the gated part is important if you are tracking it as it stops the oil surge as you are going for it around the sweeping bends.

@ you pair.. thread wrecked..Kelv, Richie, will be done in October, i'm still SO worried about the 205 block though..
oh well, if it cracks then so be it. another build for Sheady to do..
Edited to say, i'm sure Nutter & Dingle have run near on 500 bhp on 205 blocks..
