Probably easier to just do your own.

I spent ages on fleabay watching out for them and gave up.

Steel ones don't come up much and are normally pretty agricultural and alloy ones go for £100 plus for a decent one maybe less if you are lucky.

There are plenty of details on the net of how to do it.

I made the bits for mine and then took it with my modded rocker cover to a local garage who tig welded it all up.

Total cost including paint was about £30.

If you need some details I may have a .pdf on file somewhere but loads of people will also have them.





I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.

I tried to mod mine myself... chopping and making the new bit to close it off and retain the capacity is easy... welding them isn't! the steel of the sump is cr*p and really thin in places...

After a lot of trying I gave up and took my sump to a professional welder who did a superb job for just £20..
