How much height do you want to save? I am just in the process of chopping mine down and you can only take about 20-25mm off before the sump is level with the bottom of the bellhousing.

i sliced nearly 45mm off mine. its 35mm to the same height as the bell housing. i went the extra 10mm as scraping the sump on a speed hump has different results to scraping the the bell housing

The most crucial thing is to fit a separate oil pressure gauge, easy to fit and mainly for peace of mind, just so that you know that the engine is getting a good supply of oil. Not fitted on the sierra dash and once the oil light comes on its certainly too late. AndyH

Anyone who know the height of Burtons sump pan??
I called them but they had problem to understand what I mean. My English is not the best!! Probably I will cut the original sump for about 35-40mm, it should be nice with some buffles inside. Anyone who had pictures on a buffled sump?? Thank for the help Janne |

You will not need to baffile the pinto sump. The pick-up will still be in the main oil pan. Im on my 3rd pinto sump as i have had some runins with rocks a speed humps. |
