I just checked. Part number for the 74-77 sporto tank and the 76-77 turbo are the same.

Consider mounting the oil catch can in the left rear wheel well.
Hose thru fitting into wheel well not that difficult. All the excess oil & oil fumes then not in engine compartment. |

Worst case some oil will drop onto the headers and burn off, driving at speed takes care of any flames. Some oil on the tire might put you in a wall (and catch on fire anyway). You could minimize that chance by having the catch can behind the wheel but that also comes close to the exhaust and I like to have that tank higher than the oil tank. Not worried about the fumes, the fan will take care of those and extract them safely. |
Had the car washed and polished not long ago and took it to work as a daily. Not really suited for that way too noisy! :)
Snapped some pictures with my phone while it was clean! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1593590750.jpg |
With many years of track experience , we found that the oil would register on the dip stick at the min mark, with the oil at 190-200*. It would not show up with the oil cold.
Thats how we ran the cars, without any problems . 12+ qts of oil will expand at least 1.5 qts in volume . icarp |
