Years ago (circa 1985) there was a rage about Deep oil pans for '70's airheads. I own a '78 R100/7, and am wondering if they still are available.
I recently installed a later year ('81+) deeper oil pan with baffle on my 1978 /7. The center stand just clears the newer model oil pan. Here are the BMW part numbers I used:
07119919143 screw plug
07119963300 gasket ring
11131336995 oil pan (1981+)
11131338427 gasket (oil pan)
07119902993 hex bolts
07119932099 wave washers
11411252226 wire-strap
11411337509 perforated plate
11411337536 intake manifold (oil pickup)
11411256258 gasket
Many of those parts, like the screen and the 14 bolts, are the same between different oil pan versions. You need the pan, a fresh gasket, the matching pickup and its bolts, and maybe a new dipstick. And a new crush washer but that should be obvious.
How much oil volume did this add? 1 Qt? Less than 1 Qt? Also, did these parts also lower your oil pick up suction screen down an equal amount as the new depth of the pan?
What I am wanting is a "buffer" just to make sure that I NEVER go low on oil, and the added benefit of cooler oil.
