Jaguar V12 Dry Sump Kit

[wheelspin]

I need to dry sump a Jag V12 engine, does anybody know if a ready made kit is available or a company that could build one for me. I have had quick trawl on the web found nothing for the V12.

Shouldn't be a problem to make one. I would have thought your key problem is getting the right scavenge pump for the job. I'd go looking on race part suppliers sites for 'standard' dry sump bits and then it's a case of bracket fabrication and piping up.

try www.paceproducts.co.uk/

if there is a kit they'll know where to get or they'll already make it ( they suppky most of the pumps anyway)


if there isnt a kit they are very reasonable for one off work...


they did the pump and mount for my rv8 tuscan. they hd the car for a couple of weeks and it came back with a custom mount

Er, just curious as to why you would want to dry sump a V12 jag engine.
Pace don't do a dry sump kit for a V12 but I expect they would be able to offer advice and make something up.

Does it definitely have to be dry sump?

Rob Beere Engineering do a baffled sump, which would save you an awful lot of cash compared to a dry sump setup: www.rob-beere-racing.co.uk/xjs-performance.html

Edited to add: You're not the David Gould are you, Wheelspin? If so, I'm intrigued to know what possible use you could have in mind for a dry sumped Jag V12. Bit heavy for a hillclimb single seater, innit?
