Universal 3sge (inc Beams) into AE/KE thread

He says it hold one liter more than standard.
And if I make it the flange will thicket of course.
I was wondering more about the layout/principle.

I like. Make it and make me one? Also you could incorporate a similar upper baffle/plate like inside the stock pan. It goes around the oil pickup and helps keep it from sloshing up and away.

I don't know about your motor but mine sits pretty much level, not a few degree tilt like factory in the altezza.

Not too dissimilar to that fitted to sr20's.. So should in theory be fine

Hi Andrew,

My engine is tilted, I noticed they had it like that in the Altezza so I figured it probably had a reason.
Altough I don't know the exact degree of tilt of course.
A friend of mine has the engine without tilt like you so if he wants one too we can make one extra for you too, no problem.

I could use a standard oilpan to begin with but they are almost impossible to find seperate here in Europe.
But the top baffle plate should not be a problem, I was actually thinking more in the line of the cosworth Subaru baffle plate:

Just curious, is there any other blocks that can use the Blacktop 3SGE head? If so has anyone done it yet?

[Sam-Q]

all 3S and 5S blocks, the 5S is a nice option

[Powerbite]

Advantage of a 5S block?

[Sam-Q]

I don't know if they fixed it in the Gen 5 blocks but the earlier 3S blocks couldn't handle much before breaking. The 5S blocks are much stronger and start off with an 87mm bore instead of a 86 and there is the potential option of using the 5sfe crank as well to make a 2.2L engine

[Powerbite]

Awesome, thanks!

there are oil gallery issues with the 5s i think sam that mean getting the vvti to work is very complicated maybe impossible???? pretty sure old mate glenn looked into and came up with not gonna work...
