Title: oil pan mod's
Post by: fekbmax on June 08, 2015, 02:26:26 PM

Any suggestions on any kind of modifications (besides a good windage tray) that may need to be done to a full sump 9/10 qt truck pan for drag racing application's. ?  I use wheelie bars so I'm not doing giant wheels stands. I use the big fat tube rear pick-up with a good brace of course. How about any good suggestions on a aftermarket full sump pan.? Most aftermarket pans I see are either front sump, rear sump, or road race variety.  Does anyone make a stamped steel full sump pan or is a fabricated pan my only option ? ..

Have you looked into marine pans? Most of them are full sump with some type of baffles and doors. Make sure the pan is orientated for the application, a v-drive pan is orientated for the engine facing backwards. [flywheel facing forward] so you would probability use the Jet boat pan as it is set up for flywheel towards the rear of the boat and baffled/doored acordingly.   Try Dooley, Milodon, Aviad[sp] or Moroso. There is another excellent pan available by an ex Aviad employee who's name escapes me right now but he makes a damn fine pan....CRS, ya know.
