duratec + raceline sump in lotus 23
bikkel - 15/1/12 at 12:45 PM

has anybody measured the height of an duratec engine with the raceline wet sump fitted?
The low profile of my lotus 23 build is restricting the engine height.

Before spending some £££/€€ on an engine and sump I would like to know if it fits.

Thanks

I don't know about a genuine body but I beleive Tiger offer the Duratec as an option on there era 30, not a pure 23 replica but very close

Hi Koen,

I measured it and 62 cm form bottom of the sump to the top of the engine. I use an SB Dev wet sump, it's also low profile one.

Regards,
Peter
