Was it for the one listed by Stuart (996 107 243 40)?
Thanks.

Y2K said:Hello poppopbangbang,
Which option did you go for in the end?
I was looking at the D911 kit and found this thread. The 'X51 oil pan' mentioned by Stuart above looks similar also.
I'd like to protect the engine without losing too much ground clearance, as mine is a road car first track car second.
Not planning to use any sticky tyres (probably at most Michelin Super Sport, but most likely PS2).
Thank you.
poppopbangbang said:Sorry I've been flat out at work recently so not been on much. Mine has the D911 X51 style "deep" sump on it which drops ground clearance by about 20mm. It's done 30K or so on this without a problem and the baffle design is a straight copy of the X51 baffles in a slightly deeper sump, hence more oil capacity.
X51 sump is cheaper but standard oil capacity. As mine does A LOT of miles having an extra half litre onboard is worthwhile.

is this a variation on a theme - they talk of an additional 1.5l of oil capacity.
