In this example, the Oil pan is mostly a flat plate. A segment of a large diameter tube is grafted along one side to carry away spent oil. The oil pickup for the pump is external and done by replicating the hole and bolt pattern of the port in the front iron in the oil pan (plate) A steel fitting or formed tube is fitted with a flange to replicate the stock pick up. A paper gasket between the plate and the iron, and another between the fitting flange and the plate. The fitting tube may point in any convenient direction. A hose of at least one inch ID is connected to the fitting and the other end pushed onto the tube on the remote oil sump.  A large diameter hose is fitted to the front of the pan and takes oil to the sump. Oil level must be as shown (stock oil level), so suction lift is as stock. Alternative shapes are possible to suit your installation. The taller the remote sump the more foam will be removed before the oil is used again.

 

This system can be used with an after market pressure pump as well.
