RE: Oil pan capacity, etc.

Good point Mike, I should have mentioned that these pans will easily hold 6 quarts...and you need it! Also, that the windage tray is a necessity too, with any pan.

The pan I mentioned has some decent baffling, at least for a primarily street car. I've never had the oil pressure dip yet on the strip, even with a HV pump and the stock 427MR pickup tube.

If you're not plagued with 'vicious' speed bumps around where you live, and you've got the tire height and front springs to provide the ground clearance required, I'd definitely do the Milodon type pan. It's surprising what that extra capacity will do for your oil temp!
This thread, so far...
