Hmm. I have a 1275 with a badly battered oil pan. I found one available from a 948. Can I use a 948 pan on a 1275 engine? Do they have the same bolt pattern and all?
Thanks in advance!

I have a 1098 one fitted to my 1380 (ex 1275 Ital engine) it fits but leaks at the front (where the U shaped seal sits).
I did not fit it myself (it was already fitted), and so I don't know if the leak is to do with an incompatability between sumps (oil pans) or just a poorly fitting / fitted seal.
BUT the bolt patterns are the same and they do physically fit.
I would be interested in your results, keep us informed!!
