I am considering welding 2 tubes through the wall of my sump (1 inlet & 1 outlet). Then fitting hoses and an inline electric pump to suck oil out to a large oil cooler matrix in the NS ear. I can foresee 1 problem with this, in that the oil in this new matrix will all be higher up than the sump, so will automatically drop in level into the sump when the electic pump is switched off (thus giving an aritifically high reading on the dip stick). Can anyone else see any issues with this setup please?

If you're going this route why not consider dry sumping and using a slim Jim pump. Then just check the level in the tank.

Hmm, hadn't really considered this.... food for thought.
