Default DIY: Air conditioning for your Sump!.......

I found these vents I've had on the shelf for awhile. They are Pace trailer side vents I believe. Thought this idea couldn't hurt. It's a bit of a Goof, but additional cooling air to the hot sump sure cant hurt. This is mounted immediately below the sump for maximum effectiveness. Doubt I'll be able to document any differences as my Oil Cooler keeps things pretty much in line anyway. Should be a simple, cheap mod to get a little oil cooling though without any warranty issues for those of you worried about that.....

Lay out the cut right under the sump:


Mount the vent to the cover:


Enjoy the cool!


Adds an additional inch to the underside clearance but I'm not lowered and that panel will flex up 3/4 inch at that spot. Sure can't hurt for the 30 minutes it took to do though. I had the cover off anyway for my sway bar installl.

Stay cool!
