rutts Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 sure its a vauxhall carlton one you need. plus pickup pipe or mod your pickup pipe yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durdzz-suzuki-redtop Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 some ones said a manta berlinetta sump will fit an xe, some else has said on another forum that the carlton sump wont fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upk Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) the c20xe and the later x20xe(ecotec) all have the same sump bolt pattern. However the later pans use 8mm not 6mm fastners but you sould get away with that for your conversion. the manta 1.8 sump is also the same pattern as above!

durdzz-suzuki-redtop Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Iv got the c20 xe sump and I'd imagine the ecotec one will be in the same place. And run the risk of fouling on my diff. Il post some pics later so give you a better understanding. Iv found yukspeed and they do steel diy sump kits so I might buy the flange and the important bits and make my own. Is there any limitations to where the bowl is or pickup pipe if I was to build my own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Sorry to revive an old thread but does anyone have a Carlton dipstick and dipstick tube available? My son has just bought a Hillman Avenger with a c20xe partially installed. the engine has a Carlton sump fitted to clear the crossmember.
