Nice one.... Although, why you want more....? is it just to keep it cooler or something?

I thought that you might have been going down the Dry sump route... or should I not give you ideas!! :rotfl: Actually, can you do that with a Scooby...?

The larger the sump the lessre chance you have of oil stervation , and the sump is designed to retain the oil during heavy cornering.

Do you need to?

I've changed a sump before. Not quite straightforward like most 'bread and butter' cars, but do-able. Saves takin' off all the gubbins associated with engine removal. 'Specially those modified to the levels you're at.

Oh Dear :rotfl: Simon I would not put that anywhere near your car !!! I bought one second hand a couple of years ago and nearly fell off my perch when I saw the baffling, it is the worse piece of work I've ever clapped eyes on. Still keep tripping over it in the garage as mine ain't going anywhere near my car.

Is that one the same internally as yours John? I didn't recognise the design on the pic above. Was a while ago since i seen yours though.

Identical, the sump casting is nice but IMO the baffle is only worth its weight in scrap !!

Sorry Simon, don't mean to rain on your parade, just my opinion, but I do have a small amount of experience here.

Could I be so bold as to post the pic showing the baffle on 22B asking for an opinion, to coroborate what I say ?

I'm just trying to save your engine.
