Yes you can get a shallow sump from a group in brissie, also here in Sydney they take your sump and convert it for you.
Now I have not got the names of them but I think I got it through Classic VW Sydney..
Let me know how you go, I am tempted to give it a go converting mine as the production ones will not fit in my bar work..
Good luck..

I have an EA81, Simmilar or Same sump..?
Although like I was saying I may have to custom mine as my bar work will not accomodate the Custom Offroad ones...
Anything I should keep in mind other that keeping the volume the same and baffles to stop all the oil moving to the front or back..?

stabile oilsump aluminium cast
Hi,
have an own mould for a very stabile flat oilsump in aluminium cast. The sump gives 5 cm more ground clearance and has fins underneath. You can fill
in nearly the original oil qty. (4,25 litres) and the cooling property is much better than with the original oilpan. The sump costs 295 Euro ex
works.
Am looking for dealers!

oilsump aluminium cast
Seems I stepped on someone´s feet.
I don´t mind to be a competitor in quality. I have very good references all over Europe with my products. There were several reports in well known
magazines about my products (VW Speed-D, VWTech-F, UltraVW-UK).
I am a quality auditor and I have very high claims on quality.
What concerns the exhaust I can tell you, that ground clearance is better than with the original one and power is higher. The tubes have all same
length and go in same sequence with the ignition into the collector. The more of power is for the Turbo around 10 PS.
I understand that people are a little sceptic before they have not seen the products. But that´s the reason why I´m looking for a good reliable
agent in Australia.
