Thanks mate, Ive just seen alot of people use "modified" sumps, but if there is no need to, then just use a torana sump

Those "modified" sumps may have different internal oil-retaining features, like uni-directional mesh, crank scrapers, hinged gates, and baffles. But the main reason for modifying a sump is to increase its oil capacity. They're not usually modified to alter the bolt patterns or mounting surface.

Yeah i know about the modded sumps e.g HIGH ENERGY and all them sorts how they have different features and capacity rates

I was just making sure they had not changed the bolt pattern with the 304 block thats all, And castlemaine rodshop are apparently selling a "modified" sump for injected conversions, Thats what got me thinking if they had changed the bolt pattern thats all, Thanks for the feedback fella's
