Managed to get a full C20LET package from a Calibra 4x4 for my Barina.

Ive split the box off and took the sump and baffle plate off so i can clean the pick-up pipe etc at work.

While the sump is off is there anything that i could swap or adapt for future benefit? Ive heard a 2.0 8v baffle is better??

Cheers all.

Also, now i have the sump off and have full access/visibility of the crank and conrod caps, should there be a small abount of side-to-side play in the caps?

All four are the same.

I want to pop the caps off and check the bearings for scores etc anyway but just saw this as a bit odd.

Also the fact that 1,2,3 and 4 are hand engraved into each cap shows someone has been in there before and therefore anything is possible.

Arp stud and nuts for the conrods then you can safely raise the rev limit and yes 8v sump gasket and baffle plate unless you like oil on your driveway
