Still looks very deep to me.

DON'T... I got one and had to send it back for a replacement, then had to send that one back too. Both were way to narrow causing the crank to catch everytime it rotated. when i say catch i mean thump. took ages to sort out and had to get ebay involved to finally get my money back. Had to pay postage both times with no refund.
I ended up chopping my own to get it running, I'm waiting for GBS to release their replacement sump. I saw it at stoneliegh and its a much better quality and roughly the same price.

they are deep but then they do replace both parts of the black top sump. they just don't work.

Thanks mate, have now bought the Tiger/ERA one which looks really good and way cheaper than Raceline.

I've recommended Scholar Engines on a post before , you will need an old sump to send them , the 1800 escort is perfect If memory serves me right. They do a very good job, well baffled and the capacity is kept the same and no changes needed to the dipstick required.
