Do you have an Ali case? If so I had to clearance a little bit underneath my case as it slightly fouled on my empi 3.5 deep sump. This prevented the sump sitting perfectly flush with the case. May be worth a look

I had that problem too Lee but clearanced the sump to allow it to fit. My guess is its the gasket compressing that's causing it.

That's an uneducated guess though  Tongue

It’s been so long, I can not remember if there is a gasket or not. I use Wellseal on the mating surfaces. Matt Keene recommended it to me and it’s very good.

I was using wellseal on case until I ran out and used loctite, prefer the loctite now. Forget the number. I'm gonna put sump on with just sealant this time and see how it goes.
