Standard sumps are available in Saloon/Sports and 4x4 type.
Performance sumps are available for Saloon/Sports applications. Based on the Rover SD1 type sump, these are specially designed, enlarged sumps, with extra baffles to prevent oil starvation during high speed cornering.
We also supply (to special order) a modified sump designed specifically for Westfield type sports cars. This sump incorporates special baffles to prevent oil starvation during track-day use, and is available in standard and extra ground clearance versions.

The length of the dipstick tube varies considerably depending on application.
SD1 saloons have a long dipstick tube and Range Rovers a much shorter one.
To get an accurate oil level reading, therefore, the dipstick & tube must match the engine.
