That was basically my question- does anyone have a side-by-side of the KZ deep pan and the ZN deep pan next to each other?

Part numbers for oil pans: 1985 A2 ZG 1300
49034-5005
1985 A2 ZN VOYAGER 1300--49034-5005
1982 A2 KZ 1300 --49034-5005
I bought same part # from a 1981 kz 1300
Seems to me all large oil pans are the same part.

The 1980 kz 1300 A2 & B2 have different part # for the left header pipe - the pipe connected to the collector box

A little extra reference information - The pickup for the deep sump is roughly 9cm (3.5") tall

Mine is '79 with standard small sump..

No experience with it, still working on it.

If I watch the oil level can I still get in to trouble?
In what situations can the small sump be a problem?

thanks

Hi

The engine can suffer from oil starvation under hard acceleration as the oil rushes to the back of the engine. Unless you regularly attempt a 0-60mph in under 10 seconds you're unlikely to have any problems if it's always topped up.

cheers
