kikobot Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 thx to all I saw that FWD engines have the oilsump at the rear of the engine, is it a good idea to start with a FWD sump, oil pickup pipe and baffle plate ? If i raise the heigth of the engine, would it fit without cutting the sump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikobot Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 hello, do you think this sump would fit on a x20xev or a c20ne ? http://www.fsrs-partswebshop.nl/en/pan-assy-oil-opel-ascona-c-corsa-a-kadett-e-vectr.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would have thought it would have been listed with the engine codes 18SV or 20NE etc if it would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
