Apparently the best way to go is either slot the old one or buy one from RB.



Hey Luis, have you tapped your front cover yet for the oil return? Pics?

On the SE cover the hole area is just below the OMP.I tapped mine and use a 1/2" NPT fitting there.

cool, yeah I found the indentation last night.

I'll have to make a trip to the local hose place https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png and check it all out.

I knew something would come of that post! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif



Hey, does anyone use a oil sump baffle? I've been looking for the sump and they seem to offer baffles as well, wondering if they are useful/worthwhile??



Mazdatrix has the sump for US$71.50. Which will prolly come to about aus $120 after shipping and stuff, I suppose. Is that about right, or is there some cheaper?
