      No, but the CAD will be available plus Harper Fab will be making them (or similar...) https://harperfab.com/products/e30-24v-oil-sump-v3

        Final answer for the aluminum oil pan. Some changes on this one, which was now completely cut and bent to reduce welding and increase accuracy. All of the pieces fit GREAT and I there wasn't even 1/32" gap anywhere.

        The pickup is completely 3D printed in aluminum as well as the strainer, which uses a cylindrical screen to give it a small diameter while keeping screen area. This keeps the hole in the top plate small.

          The finish is Type 1 Alodine.

          Fits great, lots of room at the steering rack means I can eventually move the engine back an inch.

          I have the CAD for all of this, happy to share!
