Are these pictures of a V8 Soarer Sump?

Does anyone have pictures of the LS400 sump for comparison?

Thanks for any help!

i would say yes, i have just changed the oil in my V8 soarer and the sump certainly looked like that,
also the veiw under this engine certainly looks like the one in your photos, [url="http://soarer.ace.net.au/oil_and_filter_change.html"]http://soarer.ace.net.au/oil_and_filter_change.html[/url] hope this helps incidently the Ls 400 engine is exactly the same as the soarer though some of the ancillary parts like aircon pumps /pipes etc are different.

The sumps are different !! This is the problem i have. I need an SC400 sump as it sits at the rear, and i have LS400 sump which is pushed to the front

Thanks guys. It turned out it was a Soarer sump, but I need the upper alloy section also as it's also different on the LS400 vs the Soarer. It's for a engine conversion for my Lotus Excel. Have you sorted yours out tuninghouse?
