Dry sump system what is available??

'big wing' sump - dont even need to move the pickup then, just more vol

 

If there is a market, someone should commission AT Power to make a system for the block pattern - local, and good quality stuff:

If you look closer at the picture Nige, you will notice the short engine in the picuture is of a EA113 construction e.g. 1.8T, or FSI with a EA827 16v cylinder head fitted. These base engine blocks as we know, have cam belt driven water pumps a.k.a 'internal water pump'.

 

All these 1.8 /2.0 engine blocks use a different sump shape /pattern
058 > 1997 external waterpmp /intermediate shaft
06A -06B 1997 > internal waterpump driven by cambelt as 1.8T engines ( also 8V) MK4
06F 2003 > as 06A/B but with oilreturn from cyl-head straight to sump as FSI /TFSI MK5
Code ? chain driven distribution as new TSI engines MK6 / Mk7

 

Like I promised

The adapter plate


The intermediate shaft
I had removed the roller bearing that should be on the right of the drive gear, the recess on the shaft where it goes a bit narrow is where the bearing goes.

The intermediate shaft bearing that was used


Oil Pump (Built in 1992 so this will be replaced)

 

What type of hose do people prefer to use for the suction side (feed from tank to pump) as it can be under a nice bit of vacuum. Earl's told me there prolite 350 hose is fine for that but I have heard other people sayingbu nedd to use a inner coil to stop it collapsing.
Whats your opinions!?
@ RobT I remember seeing you using some pushloc hose with clamps on some of yours

 

yep, used the aeroquip push-on type hose and fittings, -12 size
