stockstandard wrote: Yes the AU sump can be modified by cutting and welding a new front section as shown in this picture wow! seams to me like a revelation that its possible to weld up the front of the sump of the au to make it fit in with the standard k-frame of the EF.. why didnt i think of that!!??  This may be a better option if your into keeping thing legal as I would imagine there might be issues with cutting the k-frame (require engineering?)  BRILLIANT!! can see the au to ea,eb,ed,ef, and el gaining popularity..

When exactly did JETXR stick the BA engine in?
And that has to be the worst front bar i have ever seen on a Falcon

Found these AU engines on ebay
The modified sump lets it drop into ef/el's without k-frame mods. Just need someone to do the same with BA engines now...

From memory the k-frame was done by cutting slots into the k-frame on either side of the sump. The middle was then pressed in (with a hammer) and then some sheet metal was welded in to fix up the gaps.

also i have seen on ebay that a mob in brisbane is selling au engines with modified sumps to fit e-series cars. I believe they ship all around Australia.

I know about that QLD mob. Thats where I got my engine from. However, at the time I got my engine it was too expensive to get it modified already. It still would be cheaper if I modified the sump here.
I think that modifying the K-Frame is still a better option for me in regards to cost. The only reason I bought the engine is I have a blown head gasket, and was to do a rebuild on my engine as it is just over 710K kms. In terms of cost, if I simply rebuilt the engine ( new rings and bearings, seals etc) plus do the head and new chain, head bolts, guides, there is no way I could compare with a good low Km second engine. The K-Frame is a minor problem for me. |

i thought that you could swap an ef/l sump onto an au motor and not have to do any modifications to it or the k frame? no?
