RE: interesting possibility
By Mike McQuesten - 12/10/2001 9:55:53 PM; IP 63.50.108.202
I do remember there being some problems with 428CJs in relationship to oil starvation as you described it. The possibility of the windage tray helping this is interesting. I'd always thought it was just a cheap way to assure a few more horses to the whopping 335 Ford rated the mighty Jet. But it does make sense that if there's six quarts in a crankcase originally designed to hold just five, the tray would be helpful to keep that extra oil from sloshing up and over the crankshaft.
Hey Rich, you should be able to see the windage tray sandwiched between two pan gaskets. That's if you can get a good look at the KR's pan. It would be interesting to know if your early production CJ does or doesn't have the windage tray.
This thread, so far...
