Thats just what I was going to ask, maybe it's the plastic air deflector in front of the intercooler???

 

I have one here, not sure what they are worth though.

 

A windage tray is a crank scraper:

Some people mistakenly call a sump baffle a windage tray. Touring Car Spares sells those for 50 pounds.

 

Ah Ha Its something technical, no wonder I didn't know what one was

 

why would you even need one ? the original design of the windage tray was for engines that the crank would dip into the oil and splash oil about in the crank case, the cossy crank does not do this, so never really seen the need for one on the YB

 

That's sorta why I mentioned the sump baffle. With 3.4 litres of oil in it and spray bars, the YB doesn't really need a scraper.

Plus it (scraper) could potentially mess up the pickup tolerances since the sump gasket thickness is critical to the pickup getting oil in it.

 

I thought you ment the engine under tray/drip tray lol.

 

i know this also, and still dont know why ?

 

That's what I think he means, but as said they are obsolete, but all 4wd sierra the same, and all 2wd ones the same regardless of what engine is fitted, found this out only yesterday when ordering some trim clips.

how much you lookin for it martin, you may remember me ray from suzuki bought all my brakes from you and lots of other bits

 

hi, yep some of you got it right is a plate that sits under the crank to help control oil surge and decrese oil starve problems as fitted to late small turbo cozys a m8 of mine whos helping with engine build recomends it as he modifies it to suit,belt and braces approach i think?,but after spendin ££££££ to much!! on the engine anything he says it needs it gets,just hope it gets finished soon been 3 years of building so far

 

just seen one on the ebay if you wanna know what they look like :
