I am not happy with my rear end grip and wants to improve this as I think it is a bit to oversteer to my liking.
I know it can be compensated by removing grip from the front end
but I prefer if possible to increase grip in my rear end and is now thinking about lowering my engine.
My Honda K engine is a bit taller then the Opel engine, but I never really pushed the car with my Opel engine.
Currently my oilpan is sitting somwehere 10-15mm above my underpanel reference plane and I am both thinking of make changes to oilpump
and oilpan and guessing I could gain around 20mm here and then I also thought about lowering down my oilpan to the same level as underside of underpanel and therefor I should be able to lower my engine somewhere around 30 mm.
So 2 questions comming up. Lowering the engine will help I am sure but will it be noticable when lowering it 30mm?
Cutting in my underanel I´m thinking around 10mm gap around the oilpan. Will it change the aerodynamics? If I make the oilpan complete flat
and compensate by removing one of the NACA duct, Its not completely flat here anyway because of the service panelunder the oilpan.
Any thoughts?
