Fiat Twin Cam sump problem

Post by glokkk »

Hello from Australia. I have aquired a sump from a Fiat Argenta which will give me much better road clearance for my 2.0 twin cam engined Minor. Has any one used the Argenta sump in their Minor? My vehicle is strictly for road use, and not for any competition, so l am assuming (? ? ?) that the sumps fitted to Argenta engines dont suffer from oil starvation in normal road use.
Anyone had experience with Argenta sumps in Morris Minor applications please?

Yes, many years ago. Check that the oil pick-up in the sump is still suitable. Eg not angled or at the wrong height.
