Update time...
Motor has been rebuilt and the turbos refurbished.
The motor has been in and out of the car 3 times while the extended sump is fabricated. The sump capacity has gone from 2,5l to 8l.
Here are some pics:
The extended sump is baffled, has traps and there is a splash cover. Should stand up to some abuse.
We decided on the extension so that a minor leak does starve the motor at the catastrophic rate it did when we lost a turbo seal and starved the motor in a few km's.
Meth is in and soon we will be running it all in again;-)
