Hi all,
Jason I cannot play with the sump as it is the sump that Mike Moore had on the motor when I picked it up. It has very big wings and is reasonably shallow already - when compared to a stock sump.
The idea of modifying the manifold is an option as there is plenty there. Will need to think about top end performance though??
Have played with a recesssed air cleaner base plate and thought about cutting it up and using an oval filter and making a new top.
May get this in the supplied Homebush scoop!!
The easy option is to run a small air cleaner that would fit in the scoop but feel that this would be restrictive to the air flow.
Had a few beers and put a Hornet Pro stock scoop on it - laughed and came home.
Will work it through next week
Cheers all
Bernie
