   I'm unsure on this, does the mk1 vtr sump fit the mk2 vtr?
   
   I'm unsure hence why asking, my sumps coming off at somepoint, but it's so I can save myself welding my oil return hole on the mk2 sump (as the mk1 has it already)

   The sumps on modt tu engines are interchangeable iirc
   
   I know ive got a mark 1 sump on my jp4 engine lol and ive put that on a j4 before
   8v iirc is the same so you should be ok
   But im a 16v guy i dont know 100% on them

   thats what my thoughts were alex, ive not had an 8v scince 4 years ago roughly, always had 16v, but knew that the vts sumps were identicle, just a spare hole on some for oil temp sender or something alike
   
   well.. guess ill give it a go, unless someones 100% sure
