I have been looking for a crank scraper for an F20c engine, but have not found one commercially available. Anyone know of any?

I contacted Ishihara-Johnson Crank Scrapers, since they have one for the Honda F and H series engines, but it will not fit the F20c. To develop one, they will need a short block with an oil pan and oil pump. This does not need to be a good engine, but would need to rotate. Would anybody in the Tampa, FL area (Ishihara-Johnson Crank Scrapers is in Port Richie) have an AP1 short block that they could loan to them? I can probably piece one together, but would rather not have to pay for shipping it back and forth from CT. If a scraper were also to be developed for an F22c engine, an AP2 short block would also be needed, since the stroke is longer.

 

If this happens please report back

 

Funny.
I was just reading this old thread regarding baffles and scrapers.

Isn't the crank and rod throws completely covered by the lower girdle with the main caps? That would preclude a scraper.

 

I could see a crank scraper easily there.

Windage tray wouldn’t necessarily be needed

 

I'm working on a Nissan VQ30DE now and I've found that all the VQ motors have a windage tray bolted to the aluminum ladder support that's bolted to the bearing caps (even the truck versions). The main bolts/studs pass thru the bearing caps and through the ladder support. The newer VQ37VHR has a "mid-block" design like the F20C with the bearing caps and girdle in one piece, but still uses a windage tray.
