Right, if your fitting a cossie lump into a mk1 or mk2 escort you need to have serious work done to the sump to clear the cross member. The work includes cutting back the belly pan shortening it so it clears the x-member, then having the 'wings' put on the side to compensate for the lost oil by cutting it short.
You also need to extend the oil pick up pipe so its stuill central in the belly of the sump.
This one was done by HT Racing in dartford - 01474 872 888 at a cost of £280.
You need to supply your own sump and pick up pipe, allow up to two weeks for them to do it as they are very busy.
Seems expensive, and it is but the work is 2nd to none.
