Default Dry Sump kit zetec

So i brought a dry sump for my zetec as im hoping to push high power and all i have is the sump, pump, front pulley gear and pipes, im guessing that i have to get a oil pump blank plate from somewhere else??? does anybody know what else is needed for this kit to fit to my block?

Black top or silver top? You're certainly going to need a tank and oil cooler. I have gutted an old oil pump on mine so it's just the cover and the oil is pumped in via a mount on the oil filter housing. Who's kit are you using?

Best advice I can give you is PM Lacey on here. He knows his dry sumps and may have the kit you require. You can mod a silver top pump to be the oil inlet, Lacey may have one laying around.

Hopefully you have a 3 stage kit ?
Then you need a tank ( as said above )( pace ones are good)
Oil in plate or just a fitting ( pace for the plate / think auto for a fitting which is far cheaper)
A shed load of hose -10 more -12 ( depending on tanks location)
A lot of fittings ( think automotive is good for these and hose )
Remote filter head ( me lol)
Oil cooler (think auto / pay the money for a sebtrap )
Breather tank or filters for your oil tank ( pace or pro)
One way valve for your cam cover ( me again)
Bag load of clips ( think auto again )
Probably around 10 ltr of oil ( good oil and not to thin )
And maybe some other bits lol

Hope this is enough to get you going
