IO360 Sump

[RobDob]

Morning all

I'm after some help trying to source an LW13864 sump to convert my IO360-C1C6 to forward facing induction. I can't find one (other than new) in the UK.

I have e-mailed Preferred Airparts and Texas Air Salvage, but can anyone help with any other contacts? A new sump is $6K so I really want to find a second-hand unit!!

This is now holding up my build! I'm stuck!!!

Please help!!!

Many thanks for any help you fine people can offer.

Cheers

Rob

Rob,

What about the Superior brand sump. As I recall it is experimental only and about $1,600.

Sorry to resurrect this thread....but.....

I decided to work around my sump issue and carried on with the build. I'm now back with this issue having not found a replacement 2nd hand sump!

Has anyone machined a sump to change from rearward to forward facing induction? If so, do you have any details/photos of it? This would be the cheapest option for me as there is a local company that could do it, but I'd be reassured if someone has done it before to their own engine!

I'll restart my search for a 2nd hand sump in the meantime......any leads gratefully received! (Again!)

Cheers all
