Is the sump flange different on various 1uz's?

[edz]

I'm redoing the sump on my 1uz and tried a flange from CRS in Victoria as I've used there parts before. What surprised me was that the flange had different bolt patterns to my two motors? CRS were great and accepted the plate back and refunded my money but were as surprised as me that it didn't fit. Has anyone come across this before, I thought all 1uz sumps were the same? I've attached pics.

My motor is a 1990 crown, not sure about the other block but I can check.

I have swapped sumps between , Front , mid and rear and mid 4x4 without issue. Also sat a 1uz sump onto a 2uz the other day. Same shape but the 2uz had some 8mm bolts where the 1uz had 6mm. only on a couple of holes so they too would interchange.

I used a CRS sump and I had to drill and tap 2 additonal holes toward the rear on each side.

I will say some holes didn't line up too well but with a little relieving it all went together.

with crs rear sump you have to drill and tap two additional holes.

CRS Sump

Thanks Rod, that's what I found. Two extra holes at the back, front corner hole was out. Cheers Ed

BTW - getting close to rego - sorting out my sump oil leak and then I can send it off for a tune.

Thanks Gloverman, I thought they were all close.

Nice bellhousing btw! Ed

I love the way these engines fit in Supra's and look factory, most people would never know.

I'm also just about to re do my sump so is the CRS part just a flange? I was just going to draw it up and laser cut one out of some 10 mm steel. Does anyone know if the (correct) drawing is available in the public domain?

CRS normally only sell a complete sump. Glenn (from CRS) was on here and offered me the flange only for $120 inc post however I decided to send it back as it was out on a couple of holes (as in my pics).

I did get a price of $110 (good price) locally for one scanned from a sump and laser cut but they were a couple of week from finishing setting up in their new premises.

I ended up recutting / straightening and welding my sump.

Now I've found the rear main is leaking oil (probably due to the breathers not being set up properly) - not sure how hard it is to replace the rear main?

Forgot to mention, the cad file is mentioned in a couple of posts, but I could not find it. Ed

Cheers Ed,

I'll do another search, laser cutting is cheap if you have the dxf or cad file.

Agree, but when I talked to Acuform at Hume (in Canberra) they were happy to make one for $120 including plate and scanning off an original sump which was good value. I had another quote in Queanbeyan for $300 for the same thing hand measured!

Hey,im building a 10mm steel sump flange plate at mo.. & i have found the front two (corner bolts) are out?! as in you cannot flip the flange over.. the rest of the holes are mirror imaged.Take measurements frm the back of the engine to each hole,you will see what i mean.. Did you try flipping ur flange over?It had me thinking for a while....
