its for a 2wd. i,ve managed to end up purchasing what seems to be an original group a sump i,ll have to put a pic up one day for clarification . I dont even know if there is such an item tbh but i thought whilst i,m there it may be worth getting a baffle for it . I,m sure to attend a track session in the future so want to protect the engine as much as possible .
Some people have said its overkill but its too late now haha the sump is bought . I got it for a decent price plus i can sell my one or keep as a spare .
I read some posts few years ago about the burtons item being expensive for what it is and not as good as others on the market such as the one i cant find haha

Cheers MK

All you need top do to the std 2wd sump relay is weld in some drop down plates, with a 1/2" hole halfway up each, leaving a 2-3mm gap at the base of each plate.
Steve can do this for you VERY cheaply, for mates rates, the sump is very deep so good to start with.

Touring Car Spares do the gated sump baffle for 2wd, reasonable price and good kit.
