So as I'm sure all you guys know finding an e34 sump is difficult and expensive!!
So, as I have access to huge hydraulic shears, press brakes and laser cutters how difficult would it be to fab one up? I'm thinking steel (or maybe stainless for absolutely no reason) but I could go aluminium if needs be.
Would anyone have experience of this or any recommendations?
Of course if someone's got an e34 sumo they like to flog to me id be happy with that!!
Cheers zoners

Maybe an e38 sump would be easier to find? Sounds like a major ball ache to fab one up!

They aren't that hard to find. There was one up the other day on the Facebook zone for £180 with dipstick tube iirc

Thanks guys!
Only reason I was worried really is people putting e36 sumps up on ebay labeled as e34 and then promptly conning the sh*t out of you.
I'll find a solution. Eventually...........
