    Default sump manufacturing Melbourne

    Seeing that its impossible to get a front sump setup for a 1uzfe motor, I was wondering if anyone knows someone in Melbourne that can fabricate something like this?

    as discussed, go up to industrial ave and see bronson sheetmetal. tell em what you want them to do and ask how much. go from there. theres also a dude down in werribee but he took a while to do a simple job.

    How hard are they to get ? Maybe get a complete motor from a LS400 or what ever other option the front sumps come in & take off the sump & sell the rest, as a custom front sump set up will not be cheap .......
