Porsche owners are showing up at racetracks in ever-increasing numbers. Track days, autocrosses and club events offer them the opportunity to enjoy the full potential of their cars. However, as the quest for speed leads to wider, sticky tires and competition suspension mods, the increased cornering G-forces put the engine at extreme risk from oil starvation. Bodymotion’s new two-piece modular billet oil pan prevents oil starvation and the resulting potential $28,000 engine replacement costs.
Designed for 2000-2008 M96/97 2.5/2.7/2.9/3.2/3.4/3.6/3.8 Liter liquid-cooled engines found in Porsche Generation One Caymen, Carrera and Boxster models. The Bodymotion oil pan was designed to fit with all stock exhausts as well as most aftermarket headers. The new oil sump increases oil capacity by three quarts through its unique “winged” design while not decreasing overall chassis ground clearance. The Bodymotion pan ensures consistent oil pressure by surrounding the pump pickup with an elaborate sump baffle that extends to the bottom of the pan trapping the oil, even in high G corners. (some aftermarket oil pans have a sump that is open at the bottom allowing oil to slosh away from the pickup during hard cornering.) It incorporates eleven baffle windows with innovative one-way rubber control flaps that allow oil to enter the sump, but not flow out. The Bodymotion oil pan also reduces harmful oil aeration (foaming) by returning pressurized oil from the cam covers through air/oil separators that redirect returning oil away form the sump pickup.
Several other features include a pair of opposing drain plugs at opposite sides of the engine, built-in threaded “jack” screws to assist with lower pan removal especially when it is sealed to the engine with Porsche RTV sealant. New swirl pot type air/oil separators are also included. The billet aluminum pan has a machined rib finish with the engraved Bodymotion Racing logo. All attaching hardware and oil pick-up extension and seal ring are also included.
