    With the 3sgte engine in the engine bay in a celica, and on a massive angle, position down towards the firewall, is the sump oil pickup also on a angle or is it perfectly flat to compensate the angle of the engine?

    anybody got pics.

    the p/u sits flat. the p/u tube is bent in a way that compensates for the angle of the motor.

    the engine sits no different than the stock 3s motors do. no worries about oil starvation...unless you are autocrossing it.
