has anyone ever fitted a lc/lj torana asr street comp oil pan to a holden 6 with a sonic injection crank girdle? was wondering if the oil pan is a bolt on fit without any modifications due to the crank girdle.

Can't comment about the ASR sump but the std LC/LJ sump needs a massage where the studs are towards the front side of the sump.

Mine's an ASR sump with a Sonic 10mm girdle, in an EH though, but I'd say the front of the pan is the same profile as the torana. As Warren said, I've had to shorten the front studs & clearance the pan where they touched, also took to the front edge of the girdle with the grinder for the same reason. Might be able to find a pic if you want.

Oh yeah, and I had to swap to the smaller ARP nuts for one of the studs.

Here you go, while I was digging...
There's not much depth left for the Allen key I can tell you.

I’ve got a few pics of the set up I’m using, I’ll post them up when I’m not living the dream, on holidays drinking beer while fishing...:)

As promised....
So the pick up has been fabricated, welded to a flange that bolts from the inside to a steel block that is tapped for the dash 10 fitting on the outside, this goes to the pump. The original pick up hole has been tapped & plugged off.

Very nicely made, Thanks for the Pix 

I was wondering if you went external with the oil pick up pipe.

Cheers

Is that pickup an off the shelf item and then modified to suit?  Also what sort of clearance do you have between pickup and bottom of sump?

 

Thanks

I couldn’t tell you if it was off the shelf, that was something the engine builder made up. But it sits about 5mm off the floor of the sump.
