CSP Type 1 Deep Sump - 1.5 Litre

CSP Deep Sump for Type 1 VW Aircooled Engines

Optimize your Type 1 VW aircooled engine’s performance with the CSP Deep Sump. Designed for models from 1970 onwards, this innovative 1.5-liter auxiliary oil sump ensures superior oil control and cooling, making it an essential upgrade for any aircooled engine enthusiast.

Features and Benefits:

1. Innovative Two-Part Design: The CSP Deep Sump features a unique two-part design milled from a billet of aluminum. This design allows for the integration of a baffle plate, which improves oil defoaming and circulation, ensuring the highest quality oil reaches the pickup tube.

2. Enhanced Oil Control: The baffle plate`s roof-shaped design keeps the oil securely on the pickup tube even during extreme cornering acceleration. This prevents oil starvation and ensures consistent lubrication under all driving conditions.

3. Improved Cooling: Extensive ribbing on the black anodized sump helps lower the oil temperature, enhancing engine performance and longevity. The ribbed design also contributes to weight reduction.

4. Minimal Ground Clearance Reduction: The sump reduces ground clearance by only 52 mm, maintaining the vehicle’s drivability while providing additional oil capacity.

5. Compatibility and Ease of Installation: The sump allows for the use of the original oil strainer and seals. It features a recessed oil strainer cover and includes high-quality mounting materials. Installation is straightforward, as no stud bolts need to be removed from the engine case.

6. Additional Features:

• Optional Connections: The upper part of the sump is available with or without four M22x1.5 connections for various return flows (breather box, turbo, cylinder head/valve cover, external oil pressure control).
• Oil Temperature Sensor: An M14x1.5 thread is included for an oil temperature sensor, positioned where the oil circulates for accurate readings.
• Easy Cleaning: Thanks to its two-part design, the sump is easy to clean and can be reused even after engine damage.

Advantages of the Baffle Plate:

The baffle plate divides the oil sump into upper and lower compartments, connected by 18 strategically placed openings along the outer edge. This setup offers several key advantages:

• Extended Oil Path: The oil travels a longer distance within the sump, enhancing foam degradation and reducing oil temperature.
• Constant Oil Motion: Ensures the entire oil volume is in constant motion, preventing stagnation and promoting efficient use.
• Enhanced Cooling: Directs oil along the outer surfaces, maximizing the cooling effect.
• Prevents Oil Surge: Minimizes oil surging during cornering, preventing air intake and ensuring consistent lubrication.

Specifications:

• Material: Billet aluminum, black anodized
• Volume: 1.5 liters
• Ground Clearance Reduction: 52 mm
• Thread for Oil Temperature Sensor: M14x1.5
• Optional Connections: Four M22x1.5 connections available

Installation Guide:

1. Preparation: Park the vehicle on a level surface and ensure the engine is cool. Gather the necessary tools and the CSP Deep Sump.
2. Removal: Remove the original oil sump, strainer, and seals.
3. Installation:
   • Attach the CSP Deep Sump using the supplied special nuts and bolts.
