Matt...if you're thinking abotu how to fit your return pipe...drill the sump pan on the 1.8, then get someone (can't think who!) to braise a piece of brass pipe in for the return. This is what all the guys fitting turbos to NA 240s do.

cheers

The oil temp senders often replace the sump plugs...that's how mine is...worth checking? Oil pressure gauge sender now ordered (at HUGE expense!), but I clearly rock :)

So you want a sump pan too? Better come up with the ££ dude! Which engine does it wanna be from?

cheers
